AC15 - Very, very slow --- Fixed

Anonymous
Not applicable
I just started using AC15 (Win 7 64 bit, 12G RAM). I opened a project that was done in AC14 (64bit) and I find that AC15 takes an extremely long time to open the project and even longer to change the stories (> 20 mins)

There is a lot of disk activity and the memory usage hits 99%.

The same project is ok on AC14.

I have read a lots of posts on issues with AC15 but no one else appears to have this issue. What am I doing wrong?

That is interesting because by default that checkbox is not checked.

I even remember it being checked causing problems in previous versions.

Ok, so I ensured that this was unchecked and then activated the Navigator Preview palette. Same slow behavior and I had to terminate AC15.
