[QUOTE="Krs_2007, post: 438497, member: 12948"] We shall see, its still migrating the library over. The only reason I will use it for controlling pictures to the cloud. I have several devices the myself and my wife share so it makes it easy on keeping the photo's in sync. I put pictures that I take with the DSLR into the app for that sole purpose. All editing and storing originals are done with with Lightroom and Photoshop. When I import to LR it doesn't bog my system and thats with RAW. But I have a quad core Xeon 2.8 GHz Mac Pro desktop, although its 5 years old it does have 16 GB memory and 3 1TB drives so I try to balance things a bit. Plan for the 4th slot is to possibly go SSD, just haven't done it yet. I have a Mac Pro laptop that does bog down when importing RAW files but it only has 6gb memory and its a slower processor, but its 6 years old. It does the job because I am never in a hurry. On the desktop I usually have 2 or 3 Safari's, Mail, iTunes, Lightroom and sometimes Photoshop open when importing. I think the desktop just handles the workload a little better in my case. Its hard to find the right balance when every company is updating their software all the time and the hardware stays the same for a long period of time. Oh well, I gave up on trying to stay the bleeding edge of technology. [/QUOTE]
