How fast is your Photoshop ?

Toms Hardware run a Photoshop test much more demanding than this.
Someone should copy it and publish the Action to download ;)
 
there is another test on http://www.driverheaven.net/photoshop.php

it tells you how to open image award min of 300meg to cache & how to load the action and the timer built in.

now this is odd using hte origmal op of this thread and the horse image my pc is sub 10 seconds but using the timer built in to photoshop re above how to it comes back around 13.1 to 13.2 thats approx 10 times shut down restarted photoshop and also re booted using winxp allways same time line, (also have used 500meg in the cache and 1300meg using the slider made no difference to timing on the whole).


now using the http://www.driverheaven.net/photoshop.php guide set on 300meg cache

i added loading the picture into photoshop

load = 0.6s
CMYK colour conversion = 0.8s
RGB colour conversion = 1.2s
Dust & scratch = 1.3s
Water colour = 12.5s
Texturiser = 1.1s
Stained Glass = 3.5s
Lighten effects = 2.2s
Mosiac tiles = 8.6s
Extrude = 39.9s
Smart Blur = 30.5s
Underpainting = 14.1s

now it seems closer to the orignal timings than the above (op horse picture) but the extrude didnt take 39.9s or smart blur 30.5s

so if you wish to try this i guess timing is still "another mans where to count from".

thank you to the http://www.driverheaven.net/photoshop.php for this test. it may be for cs2 and cs3 is not the same for timing

above tests im using a 32bit winxp q6600 not clocked 2 gig ram.

ill make a new thread on it obviously it just for those who wish to contribute not expecting 14 pages on that.. lol

cs4 eh? will have to buy that tonight ;)

There's a CS4 trial available for download from Adobe themselves if you know how. It's a quick Google job to find out and gives you the Master CS4 package for a 30 day trial. I have NO idea if this is ok or not since it's not directly available from clicking links on their website but they must know people are downloading it from them and it's not been removed for the last 4 days...
 
little disapointing.
11 seconds

Vista 64Bit SP1
Adobe Photoshop CS4

Q6600 Stock
4Gig Ram 6400
ATi X1800XT

Exactly the same for me...

11 Secs, vista 64 SP1, PS CS4.

Though my q6600 is at 3.4 ghz, and my ram is pc8500


EDIT: just got 7 seconds on the second try, so now I'm happy :D
