[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 450619, member: 9240"] To answer your original question, no, you cannot go back. If you have a backup of the LR 5.7 catalog that was converted (something you should [I]always[/I] have before upgrading) what you [I]can[/I] do is to create XMP files for all photos loaded into LRCC post conversion and then import those into LR 5.7. Some edits around things like brushes within gradient filters [I]may[/I] not get taken (it's a non-even gradient and I have no idea how LR stores it - you might be OK as long as you never try to edit the Gradient or Radial Filter). What I'm finding is that with LRCC set to use my graphics processor, things are definitely faster [I]as long as I don't have anything else up and running[/I]. If there are Firefox windows in the background or potentially other things that have sucked up some processor cache then it can bog down. I'm getting the CPU fan kicking in on simple LR edits where it never used to. It has 16GB of RAM to use on my Macbook Pro, but if other apps are sucking it up then I may be better using the old performance arrangement. I think it's gonna be a while as people figure out how best to set certain things. Exports seem fine. Imports, on the other hand, were horrendously slow after I swapped to auto-sizing on my 1:1 previews (seems the standard for my Retina display more than twice the old default - I've since opted for something smaller).
