ID 2021 (16.1) slow performance with all palettes open
Running ID 2021 (16.1) on MacPro (2019) 3.3 Ghz / 192Gb / AMD Radeon Pro W5700X 16 Gb / MacOS 10.15.7.
So, I would like to report a bug related to the palettes in ID. I run a 2 monitor setup with my work on one screen and all my ID palettes on on the second screen. I have run this way for 10+ years. This has always been OK until I moved from InDesign 2019 (14.0.3) to ID 2021 (16.1) 2 months ago.
The performance of ID 16.1 is unacceptably slow. It is as if you have a really intensive process running in the background (like Folding At Home) all the time.
Now... if I hide all my palettes (press TAB) then everything speeds up and there is no lag at all, exactly like it was with ID 2019. Show palettes and everything slows down, LOTS of lag. No spinning beech ball, just lag.
If I go back and use ID 2019 everything works perfectly. It is fast with all palettes open. The problem is in ID 2021.
PLEASE, can Adobe take a look in to this. I am happy to take a movie for you, but the description above is what you will see.
InDesign is so frustrating to use right now, please help.
Thank you,
Tom
