1. Slow performance when opening file from SMB3 volume

   Illu CC2018, OS X 10.11, SMB3 volume: open, save, place links etc. on/from SMB3 volume is incredibly slow (smae with SMB1 and SMB2). Indesign & PS CC2018 do not show this behaviour.

2. Slow response time

   I have been using a my 2014 Macbook Pro with no problems using Adobe Illustrator. However I recently switched over to a PC i7-6850K CPU and two EVGA 1080 GFX cards. And I find that when I use AI after about 1 hour it starts to seriously lag... getting worse as time goes on. The only way I have been able to temporarily resolve this is to close AI entirely and then re-open the program.

3. Not enough memory

   Have issues with CC 2017 (latest version) not being able to action things as not enough memory. Seems to be that 2GB limit that Ai imposes as my system has 64GB installed with at least 40GB free to use. The programme is also incredibly slow with anything complex. I reinstalled CS6 version, and that works faultlessly and fast with the same files, with no hesitation at all! It's at least 20x times faster than current Ai. I'm on a powerful Mac Pro with Sierra 10.12.6 and an NVIDIA 4GB GTX 970 graphics card. I have disabled GPU use as it often crashes AI. I put performance ahead of new features. There are so many vector programmes out there that work so much faster than Ai. There must be a fix as something is definitely seriously wrong here.

   It seems like using Magnet app together with Illustrator breaks something. Try to it for now (sadly, it is reported Ignore option does not do it).

5. Very laggy zooming in and out using mouse scroll since versions 28.1

   I'm on Windows 11, using the newly updated AI 29.0. This has been mostly my issue since AI 28.1 onwards. I've been using AI 28.0 without any problems, but I try out every new version to see if the issue will be resolved. I have a good internet connection (700++ Mbps). I think my system has more than the minimum requirements.

   For AI 28.0 - both .AI and AIC (cloud) files can be zoomed in and out using mouse scroller without any problems.

   For AI 28.1 - 29.0 - Locally saved .AI is somewhat laggy. Cloud saved .AIC has a very laggy scroll zoom.

   I have tried resetting the preference and reinstall a couple of times to no avail.

8. Enormément de latence

   Je rencontre des problèmes avec illustrator. Mon ordinateur est équipé de Windows 10 et d'une carte graphique NVIDIA RTX A4500 à jour. Depuis la version 28.0 de l'application, celle-ci met beaucoup de temps à se lancer et lorsque cela se produit, je n'arrive pas à accéder à l'écran d'accueil où je peux choisir le type de plan de travail que je souhaite utiliser. Je suis contraint d'ouvrir directement un fichier depuis mon explorateur de fichiers, sinon l'application ne fonctionne pas. De plus, une fois que j'ai ouvert un fichier, il y a un temps de latence d'au moins 30 secondes, voire plus, entre chaque clic et l'exécution de l'action correspondante... En résumé, l'application est inutilisable.

9. Fan runs constantly after update to 27.4.1

   Updated to 27.4.1 yesterday. Today whenever I run Illustrator, my fan kicks in on high. Activity monitor says "Adobe Illustrator Web Content" is using 100% of my CPU.
   Using: MacBook Pro 2019, running Catalina 10.15.7
   Restarting doesn't help. Only thing that helps is to quit Illustrator or run previous version (26.5.3)

12. Delays and Sluggishness

    For the 30+ years I've been using Adobe Illustrator, I don't think I have every really been bothered by the app or an update until last year. Now when you open AI, make a new file, or try to drag content around on a canvas or move the page around using the hand tool, the app is very lethargic and jerky. It is as if it is validating all actions by an online verification before any action is done. This really makes using the app frustratingly slow.

13. placing (linking) JPGs in illustrator makes files incredibly slow to work with

    Often I create layouts that require linking JPG in my doc. Whenever there are multiple JPGs in my doc, the doc becomes very slow. I do not notice the same performance issue if the linked files are TIFs. This has been an issue for multiple versions of Illustrator.

14. AI 25.4.1 GPU performance still very slow, cannot easily editing previous version files

    Since AI 25.2 I've had problems editing files. With GPU features enabled, all UI functions, selecting, deselecting, all mouse dragging functions, menu selections are all extremely slow to respond, I'm talking several seconds between responses to clicks and movement. Turning off "Real Time Editing" helps somewhat, delays are shortened, but still very difficult to work with. Disabling Animated-zoom has no effect. Disabling GPU entirely, improves selection and dragging, but there is still a delay of several seconds after releasing the mouse button. This behavior seems restricted to editing files prior to v25.2, but not all. Preforming a "SaveAs" over the existing file does not solve the problem. I found copying and pasting the entire contents into a new blank document does seem to solve the problem, as the UI response is speedy in the new document, in the same session of AI ! New documents work normally. Copy and pasting is not a practical solution. I do not see any shape or color problems. I've refreshed AI 25 preferences, to no effect. I'm using AI 24.3 where these same problem files edit normally with GPU enabled!? I attached a typical example file. As of 9-21-2021 all my CC-Apps and graphic drivers are up to date. Video card is NVIDIA P5000-16GB/driver-v472.1/30.1.14.7212, computer HP-Z8 Xeon4112, Win21H1-19043.1237, MS HID mouse driver.

15. AiRobin using 16-24% CPU constantly

    Every time Illustrator is opened (and sometimes after it is closed) AIRobin uses cpu constantly even when no files are opened.

    1. OS: Windows 10 Pro ver:2004 build:19041.1165
    2. Illustrator Beta 26.0.667
    3. steps to reproduce are above
    4. my expected result is for it to only use CPU when a task is needed
    5. this description should be more than adequate.

17. Illustrator 25 extremely slow

    Illustrator 25 (the past several versions; currently running 25.2.3 on two separate Macs) on Mac OS (Big Sur) has been running extremely slowly for me. I've reinstalled the app, reset prefs, removed plugins, removed fonts, etc., unticked "GPU performance," ensured that dictation is disabled at the OS level, and Illustrator is still giving me the beach ball of death for things like selecting items in the menu with a dead-simple file.

    I have downloaded Affinity Designer, but it's not making my socks go up and down — twenty years of Illustrator muscle memory makes it hard to switch. I'm not clear on what's causing Illustrator to lock up so frequently — would love to be able to send a log file to Adobe for analysis, but not clear on how to do it. Any help would be appreciated.

18. Selection Lag / Delay v.25.2.3 Windows 10

    I have been experiencing delays with Illustrator for some time now. It will lag for a second or so when selecting objects / text. A popup will flash in the top left hand corner of the screen, but it is too brief to identify what the popup is. I have tried screen recording but it's too brief even for that. Last month I did a clean install to see if that solved the problem and it did - but it's gradually come back. Constantly having to restart the system to bring performance back to normal. I find that the AI splash screen takes longer than it used to.. and hangs on loading plugins with lots of popup window activity in the top left of the screen Windows 10 x64; Radeon Pro WX7100. Anyone else experiencing this? Getting fed up of Adobe these past two years TBH.

19. gpu animated zoom ramdomly disables after 25.0.1 update (25.2.1)

    Last tried with illustrator version 25.2.1

    Using animated zoom – gpu enabled – illustrator randomly switches to cpu while working on illustrator PDFs
    Does not occur while working in a .ai file, only PDF.

    Interim Solution: downgrade to 25.0 – animated zoom works fine using 25.0, but now randomly crashes from time to time …
