the plug-in is now posted to this location:

from the website:

The Adjusted Refresh plug-in addresses the time it takes to visually preview some filter updates in Adobe® Photoshop® CS. This plug-in reduces the size of the Photoshop image tiles. This causes the display to redraw in smaller pieces, reducing the time it takes to see the updated preview. The Adjusted Refresh plug-in will also reduce the initial scratch disk usage after you launch Photoshop. Note that overall performance may be reduced for users with multiple processors or more than 1 gigabyte of RAM

Well glory be, this thing actually seems to address one or two of my gripes about CS.

Can the File Open Preview delay be fixed with a plugin too?

WOW! The brushes selection window (right click image using a brusable tool) no longer delays popping up. No longer have a cursor delay when switching tools. Those were my only 2 speed related issues and both were only around a second.

That’s right snappy gentlemen!

I have a 430 meg file that was taking nearly 7 minutes to load. With the refresh plug-in, it opens in 18 seconds! I tried this repeatedly, removing and restoring the plug-in, same results every time.

The computer is a P4 with HT, 2GB of dual channel RAM.

"It must be a problem with your system." OK, whetever; anyway, thanks to Adobe for fixing the program that wasn’t broken.
