Adobe’s John Nack on Photoshop CS5 performance

Adobe’s John Nack writes on Photoshop CS5 64-bit benchmarks in his April 16 blog, citing my diglloydSpeed1, diglloydMedium and diglloydHuge benchmarks with respect to Photoshop CS5 performance improvements.

See my Optimizing Photoshop report. When Photoshop CS5 is released, I’ll be putting it through its paces and updating my research.

Figures below from John Nack at Adobe (not my own tests). I will report my own figures when CS5 ships, but my comment at this point is that I do not endorse these results.
