Anyone had any success with tweaking settings to make Photoshop faster? Here are a couple from lifehacker...

Let us know if you have any of your own... Big Grin
I'll try those at home. Hard to believe that this secured this domain name just to publish 2 hints...
1. The "normal" one about deciding where is your scratch disc(done in the initial setting up stages I guess);
2. Reducing the History from its default of whatever it is(112? 128?)...I have mine at about 6!
3. Turning Photoshop off after working on a large tiff, then on again.
I'm sure I'd benefit by a few more too, as my pc/procesor are quite old.
4. Buy a new computer Big Grin

Only 6 !!

This is for super experts! I have my in 65... Sad

I know that also reducing the number of brushes and tool presents makes it faster, but I believe this is only in the starting phase.
