Description hoangwaverly 2017-02-14 18:59:53 UTC
Opening the program takes ages, and once it's open everything is crazy slow. I know it's not my computer because all my other programs run fine. It's so slow it took 5 minutes to create a canvas, and I can't see my cursor over the canvas because it lags so much. Also it's constantly not responding, I just installed it yesterday and it makes me want to just go back to Paint tool sai because I don't have to wait a million years to make one brush stroke. It's very frustrating!

Which operating system? Which OpenGL drivers? Which tablet drivers? If you can make it to the settings dialog, try disabling the OpenGL canvas.

I am using Windows 7 and I have a Wacom Bamboo Tablet my driver is fine but the whole program is so slow.

I'm sorry, but given that hundreds of thousands of people are using Krita and that for them it works fine, it must be something specific to your setup.

Some security software, like sandboxie, makes Krita really slow. Some graphics drivers make Krita really slow, in which case you need to disable opengl as Christoph has suggested, and sometimes people have the stabilizer enabled and don't know about that... Are you by any chance using 32 bits floating point images? 

In any case, this is a user support question, not a bug: krita runs fine in general, just not on your setup, over which we don't have any influence. We can try to figure out what's up, but bugzilla is not the place for that, bugzilla is for reporting bugs that can be fixed in our code.
