2018 Mac mini

Results

Import without moving 552 high resolution raw files with 1:1 previews as well as export to very high quality full-res JPEG.

Adobe has made progress in using CPU cores over the past several years, so this test shows that the 2018 Mac mini and its six CPU cores offer a substantial advantage of the 2017 iMac 5K with its 4 CPU cores.

TIP: a fast SDD for the Lightroom catalog is critical to Lightroom performance. store big photo and video files on an OWC Thunderbay and store Lightroom catalogs on a fast SSD.
