Adobe Bridge 2021 very slow to respond

[panthermeow]

Hello All,
I oversee a computer lab and one of the professors reported to me that Adobe Bridge 2021 is taking a long time to open and get ready for use. She is reporting a time of 2-3 minutes from program click to useability. Has anyone had a similar issue with Adobe programs? Here are the computer's specs:

iMac (Retina 4K, 21.5-inch, 2019)
Processor 3 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i5
Memory 8 GB 2667 MHz DDR4
Graphics Radeon Pro 560X 4 GB
A 1 TB Fusion drive for storage

It depends on how large is picture database, it has to cache all the pictures and their thumbnails. Select 100% preview in cache preferences, and select the parent folder and check View > Show Items from Subfolders. Leave it overnight to build cache. Also, fast drive is always better.
