[Leica] Lightroom 6 speed issue?

[leica_r8 at hotmail.com (Aram Langhans)]

I'll check that, but my copy is a stand alone, not the CC version.  But
maybe the cloud shows up anyway.  Thanks.  Got to run.  Need to be out of
this campground soon and on our way towards Yosemite.

I had the same trouble but solved it by turning off the Cloud side of
things. I am not a technical person but the problem appeared to be that it
wanted to upload everything to the mystical Cloud and that was taking for
ever. The only way I found to turn this off was to go right back to
reloading it and you get a splash screen that gives you the option to set
this facility to On or Off. I set it to off and it is now not a problem, and
is faster than LR5.
