Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 Upgrade

After "wasting" several hours reading forums here and elsewhere on the unacceptably slow operation of Lightroom 3, I am compelled to add my voice to those of the others here who are demanding that Adobe acknowledge a serious performance issue with the product.

I use LR professionally on two different Vista 32 systems that both ran LR 2.7 extremely well. The degradation in operational performance introduced by LR3 on both machines is so severe that the product is unuseable, as it causes a major delay in my workflow - sitting watching the "processing" logo spinning on the screen is giving me nightmares! Hence, I am stripping out LR3 and reverting to 2.7.

I am IT literate and there is lots of potentially useful comment and advice here and elsewhere on what may be the cause of the problem. However, software vendors are duty bound to ensure their product is fit-for-purpose - they cannot expect purchasers to research issues at length and try various technical options for achieving a level of performance improvement. This is especially true when the vendor is allegedly selling a product for use by professionals.

The new functioanlity is LR3 is welcome, but the product should not have been released without effective testing and, where appropriate, real-world advice on the minimum system configuration, and, if appropriate, the correct method of migrating catalogues from one version to another.
