Photoshop Speed Test

Remember I was talking about Photoshop loading speed? Well, in this world of internet which I reckon it as a “World of intelligence”, people tend to test out Photoshop speed together

So, it works like this…

1, Open a new document with 8×10 inches in 300dpi resolution
2, Add noise filter on it, apply it as Uniform, Monochromatic and 400%
3, Add Radial blur filter as 100, Zoom, Best in quality
4, Press enter on Radial blur and start counting.

It took me 3 minutes 7 seconds to apply the Radial blur, which I consider as slow like shit! I can’t believe I’m holding my pen and stop watch on my hands for 3 minutes just for this sake! Honestly I don’t expect that kind of speed though, the average speed was 50 seconds, but my Macbook with Intel Core Duo 1.83GHz and 1GB DDR2 RAM running so God damn slow recording 3 minutes while those with Pentium 4 2.8GHz and also 1GB DDR2 RAM could make it on 1 minute?! Damn, there must be something wrong with my laptop!
