I'm shooting with new R6MK2 (and struggled to find a newly updated DPP to process images). I noticed immediately how tremendously slow .CR3 (using CRAW compression) take to batch process convert to JPG v .CR2 images. Note that Lap 1 in the first photo was 10 .CR2 images averaging 35MB files size that processed successfully in less than 2 minutes. Lap2 is 10 .CR3 images averaging half the size taking nearly 11 minutes (5 times longer!) to process. I'm on a 2020 MacBook Pro with M1 chip using Ventura 13.0.1 macOS. I've tried both CRAW and non CRAW .CR3 with same results. I desperately need to see significant improvements as my clients are "time is of the essence" type. Appreciate suggestions and other feedback.

The most time consuming tasks in DPP seem to me to be digital lens optimizer, noise reduction, and peripheral illumination correction. Turning off these in the camera menu speeds up DPP, but loses the benefit of having them.
If you were to shoot both CR3 and JPG, then the in camera JPG could serve for immediate preview and be improved later by editing the CR3.

I'll give those a shot John and consider results. Appreciate your feedback!

Yes I'm very unimpressed with DPP4 on my Mac M1 machine. 550 images takes me approx 5 hours.
You shouldn't have to spend another $7k to upgrade to the M2 as stated below?

Don't see this getting any better, or me buying any additional new Canon mirrorless gear anytime soon.😒
