I have a decent
computer with 16 gigs of ram but whenever I come across files with a lot of layers like that they take forever to open and make changes to. Is that an issue for you or do you just have a really expensive setup?
My
Dell XPS is a few years old now. It has a Core i7 quad core 3.4GHz, 16 GB of RAM. Nothing that special. But no, I don't have any issues with opening or working on a file like this. I'm using
Windows 10 and I usually have several other programs open too. Thunderbird's always open. Skype is running. Various office documents... And typically I have 20+ tabs open on Chrome at any given time and multiple tabs/projects open in CorelDRAW too, all while jamming out to Spotify. So I'm not sure why you are experiencing performance issues on files like this. Are you saving and opening files from a server? Maybe your router is slow? My stuff is all saved to our NAS and we have a pretty nice router. We upgraded the router recently and it made a noticeable difference, but even with our old router it still didn't take too long to open a file like this.
