Adobe Photoshop CS2 Bigger Tiles Plug-In

September 26, 2006 at 2:50 pm

Page 22 of the DG #124 had a write-up about a "Bigger Tiles Plug-In" for Photoshop that I was not aware of. After I got off the toilet and sat down at my computer, I checked out it's validity and here's what Adobe has to say:

The Bigger Tiles plug-in causes Photoshop to process image data in larger chunks. This will reduce the overall time to complete many operations, especially on computers with more than 1 GB of RAM installed. Bigger Tiles will also reduce the responsiveness of the application in some situations.

The Bigger Tiles plug-in is installed in the Extensions folder, within the Plug-Ins folder in the Adobe Photoshop CS2 folder. To activate it, rename it to remove the "~" from the beginning of its name.

I found the plug-in file in the following location on my installation of CS2:
