#1 Re: CE4 Stage » CE4-Stage incredibly slow » 2016-02-15 15:40:49

Matthew & Rod,
I tried again this weekend - different set up & LR 6.4 . No change, 30-50 second to update a simple type change!
Totally unsuitable for large volume processing.
Frustrating because you worked on a good product - My feeling is still that there is a minor bug when LR tries to recognize the plug - once the path has been found, the progress is fairly normal.
Let me know when you come up with a patch via e.mail. Thanks, JC

Thanks Rod,
We tried...
I'll check with you & Mat tomorrow in case you come up with something today - I'm on Zurich time , you're in WA time - I'm finishing my day - you're about to have an early lunch!
Best luck,
JC

Matthew & Rod,

Thank you both for trying to help
I downloaded/installed a new plugin from the link you sent me.

Recap
- OS 10.10.5
- LR 4.4.1
- CE4 Stage.lrwebengine - created/modified 01-06, 2016 at 1:47 PM

1 tested a web gallery - 2 .jpg 1000x1000
Gallery lay-out - default

- Average waiting time for update preview 55-70 seconds
- Average waiting time for browser preview 45-50 seconds

Option .php off - browser preview works

From the upper left corner progress bar, files most likely to create a bottleneck:
lib/css/ common.css, navigation.css, & component.css, index.thml

I ran a W3C validator test on some files in the lib/css folder. They all come with the error message
Parse Error Lexical error at line 1, column 2. Encountered: "%" (37), after : "<"

Could be that, could be something else..
I’m not going to touch it - it’s your baby
Just trying to help - You have a good product - I am sure it is a minor bug

Best luck, let me know when it’s fixed

JC

OK I think I identified the general area of the problem - a connection problem.
- Once the progress bar kicks in - it’s OK - it runs fairly fast.

The issue is the connection LR to webengine or webengine to LR
- 40-some seconds loading when I open LR
- 40 some seconds update preview when I do a single change
- Preview in browser - navigation/components.css building take forever The browser does not even open!

I did a comparative test with Gallerific HTML5 and Lightroom HTML gallery - no problem with both - make/enter changes & opening the browser - fairly fast & stable.

I tried to download a new CE4 Stage packet - things do happen sometimes.
I went on the CE4 Stage page download of the TTG site, my only option is to pitch in an additional $25 and no guarantee the new plug will work any better…
Any alternative?
Thx
JC

Thanks Rod,
I clocked 42 seconds loading time on a 5 images test-portfolio this morning!
40-some seconds is an eternity in computer time!

Except for changing the File Name Generation in the Prefs. - replace illegal characters with (-), replace empty space with (_) - I don’t see what else to change.
Any suggestion?
Thx

Love all things TTG - I have been a supporter for a long time.
Now, could someone help me - I’m losing my mind watching the wheel spins on my screen!

This morning I downloaded the 2016 CE4-Gallery, it worked fine. This afternoon, I upgraded to CE4-Stage. It takes forever to update the changes in the setting - spoils all the fun of exploring it!
- I am doing a barebone test template with 5 images - max size 600px wide/thumb 150px wide
- I am working on a MacBookPro - OS 10.10.5, Lightroom 4,4,1
- The CE4-Stage.lrwebengine is in the folder user /library/applicationsupport/adobe/lightroom/webgallery

I removed the old webengine, checked everywhere if there was a pref. or something that would slow down the new one. Even rebooted after installing - no changes
Any tip will be much appreciated.
Thanks
JC
