AI Enhancer Performance Issues – Any Tips or Upcoming Improvements?

Hi everyone,

I’ve been using D5 Render for a while now and I’m really impressed by its real-time rendering performance – it’s fast, smooth, and delivers high-quality results.

However, I’ve noticed that the “AI Enhancer” feature tends to run quite slowly compared to the rest of the software. While the rendering process itself is excellent, the AI enhancement step feels sluggish and takes longer than expected.

I’m wondering:

  • Are there any tips or tricks to improve the speed or performance of the AI Enhancer?
  • Could this be related to hardware limitations, or is it more of a software-side issue?
  • Is anyone else experiencing the same?
  • And finally, are there any upcoming updates planned to optimize this feature?

Any insights or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hi @humbleartafrica

The AI Enhancer or AI Tool in general is reliant on your internet connection. If there are fluctuations and some significant slow downs on your end, it will greatly affect the loading time. Please try to:

  • Connect to a different network to test, you can use Mobile Data.
  • Try using a VPN if there are any differences.
  • Restart your Internet Connection

Additionally, we did have a minor issue last weekend regarding the AI Tools which were immediately repaired.

Hi, thank you for your response!

I’ve checked my internet connection as you suggested – I’m on a stable fiber connection (200 Mbps), and I don’t experience any other slowdowns in other online applications.

However, the issue with the AI Enhancer persists: when I launch any AI generation, the loading sometimes gets stuck or takes an unusually long time to complete.

Could this be related to:

  • Server-side congestion? (since you mentioned a recent issue last weekend)
  • Or maybe regional server issues?

Is there any recommended way to diagnose whether it’s on my side or D5’s servers?
Also, are there any upcoming updates planned to optimize AI performance?

Thanks again for your help!

Hi @humbleartafrica

Do you have any estimate of how long it takes for the AI Enhancer tool to load on your end? We can have a quick test and compare the numbers on my end. It could be related to server-side congestion, but on my end, it loads normally, and it does not take too long or longer than 2 minutes.

  • Were you able to test it by connecting to another network?
  • What is your account’s email address?

Additionally, yes, there are plans for optimizing AI Performance when it comes to the overall result of the image. Or are you perhaps pertaining to the speed instead of the quality?

Currently, the AI Enhancer is stuck again, and we are working to repair it as soon as possible.

Hi, thank you for following up!

Since around 5 PM today, I’ve been trying to enhance some images with the AI Enhancer, but it just stays stuck loading indefinitely. Even after waiting for a long time, it never finishes, and eventually, in the “Tasks” bar, the image I wanted to enhance does not appear at all.

So it’s not just that it takes longer than 2 minutes – it simply doesn’t complete the process.

I have not yet tested with another network, but as I mentioned, I have a very stable 200 Mbps fiber connection. Should I still try with mobile data or a VPN?

Also, just to confirm, I’m referring to the speed / loading issue, not the quality of the enhancement.

Do you think this could be a server-side issue, or something wrong with my account?

Hi @humbleartafrica

As mentioned in my previous reply, the AI Enhancer is stuck again, and we are working to repair it as soon as possible.

I apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.

Hi, thank you for the update!

I completely understand that these issues can happen, and I appreciate your efforts to fix it.

However, I have an important project presentation this afternoon, and I need to show these enhanced renders to my clients.

Do you have any estimate on how long it might take to resolve the issue? Even an approximate timeframe would help me plan accordingly.

Thank you so much for your help!

Hi @humbleartafrica

Previously it took 2 hours (Last July 12, 2025) to restore, but we cannot say if this will be the case today. Rest assured we will do our best to resolve this issue within the day.

Hi @humbleartafrica

AI Tools has been restored.

Hi, thank you for restoring the AI Tools!

However, I’m still experiencing the same issue:

  • When I launch the AI Enhancer to improve the realism of my images, it gets stuck during loading.
  • After some time, the process cancels itself, and the progress disappears from the Tasks bar.

Could you please advise on what I can do to solve this?

  • Should I reinstall D5 Render or clear some cache/temp files?
  • Could it be an account-related issue?
  • Or is it possible that there is still some server-side instability affecting certain regions?

I really need to get this working because of my project presentation, so any solution or workaround would be greatly appreciated!

Hi @humbleartafrica

Just to confirm since you’re always experiencing this issue, does this occur always?

Just now, we’ve restored the AI Tools again, since we experienced some minor issues. Please try again and see if it is now normal on your end.

Yes, I can confirm that this issue happens every time I try to use the AI Enhancer.

I just tested it again after your latest fix, but unfortunately, the percentage does not move at all, and after some time, the task simply disappears from the Tasks bar.

I really need this feature for an urgent project, so any solution or workaround would help a lot.

Thanks again for your support!

Hi @humbleartafrica

Alright, you did mention that you have a stable internet connection, but I would still want you to test:

  • If connecting to another network will yield the same result. You can try using Mobile Data or use a VPN, this is just to confirm whether the issue stems on your network or on the device.

Another suggested solution is to try the following:

  • Try modifying the save location of these images; you can try it on your desktop. Issues may arise if you don’t have full control over the folder where you plan to put these upscaled images.
  • You may also want to Sync Local and Server Time

Hi, thank you so much for your detailed suggestions and professionalism!

I will try these solutions (testing with another network or VPN, and changing the save location to my desktop) and see if this resolves the issue.

I’ll get back to you to let you know if it works.

Thanks again for your support!

Hi,

I hope it’s okay to butt in. But we’re also experiencing this since 6 hours ago. Slept on it to just continue the AI part this morning, but it still does not work now. Is this an ongoing issue? I just have some urgent jobs I need to finish

Hi @patricia.d

I apologize for the inconvenience. We restored it an hour ago, there might be some slow downs because of the amount, please wait longer. I tested it on my end and it was successful, the amount of AI Processes should be stable as the day goes by.

Hi Clov, is AI down again? I can’t download the upscaled versions again (same issue as before)

Hi @patricia.d

Are you still experiencing the issue? There were no massive AI issues recently. I’ve tried it on my end, and AI works normally.

  • Have you tried downloading the upscaled image in another file location?
