It’s not RAM, and it’s not hard drive, it’s just maxing out on CPU. When I open a folder full of new camera raw TIF files from a Canon 1D it’ taking forever to get thumbs, read meta, and generate previews. CPU is 80-90% for bridge.exe while RAM is only using at most 200MB of my 2GB of RAM.
To be fair it was not much faster doing this with CS1’s browser. If you have more than 500 files in a folder, walk down to the store and get a coffee or whatever. You just gottta wait it out as Bruce Fraser said in his CS1 RAW book. If I could give only 25% of the CPU to bridge that would be nice. What adobe could have done was give us an option to read the thumbs, meta and previews as a "background task".
