Adobe Illustrator's Multithreading Journey Begins!
Dear Illustrator Community,
I'm thrilled to announce that we've embarked on an exciting journey to bring multithreading capabilities to Adobe Illustrator. This significant undertaking will enhance performance and responsiveness across various aspects of the application.
While this is a complex process that will take some time to fully implement, I wanted to share our progress so far.
Our Approach
We've strategically begun by focusing on the most computationally intensive operations—those that typically take more time and block the main thread, resulting in slower response times while you work. By moving these operations to separate threads, we aim to significantly improve your overall experience with Illustrator.
It's important to note that you may see more noticeable impact in some areas than others initially. However, we want to assure you that this is just the beginning, and we will continue this journey to bring improvements across…

I agree with @Steve Adobe Illustrator does seem to be under-performing compared to other programs I run that also deal with large files. While the tips & tricks some have posted are useful in many use cases they do not address all use cases and do not fix the problem of an under-performing application that user pay for year after year.

This will be a useful time-saving feature that will also aid in providing consistency for branded art & design works.

@Luis and @Anonymous I also purchased all three Serif/Affinity apps during their half off sale. I cut my personal Adobe subscription. I still use Adobe at work but have found there are some high complexity vector files that cannot handle and that Affinity Designer handles with ease. I will say though that the biggest leg up Adobe Illustrator has over Designer is the shape builder tool. For logos and character illustrations it is a huge time saver... but when it comes to uber complex vector files like large Open Street vector maps, Designer thrives while Adobe derps. With that said, I enjoy both sets of software. They both have their strengths and weaknesses... and one costs far less.
