I have found that the Healing Brushes (spot and otherwise) are very very slow in Photoshop CC 2018.
I have tried all the usual remedies but with no lasting success. A bug no doubt.
Have gone back to using Photoshop 2017.

Seems like I'm talking to myself…
Photoshop CC 2018 has an from today update. I note that after updating the version number has not incremented from 19.0. Interesting.
The spot healing brushes now seem to be back to normal; perhaps even faster than PS 2017.

Simon, I didn’t catch your post earlier because I haven’t been here for a while. I didn’t experience the slow response prior to the latest update of CC, but what is irking me in the latest version(s) is the loss of ‘forward projection’ with the Clone Stamp that images the initial pick-up of the cloned area forward so you can extend an element with some precision instead of wasting time clomping around with the stamp and getting frustrating. I keep thinking there is some setting that magically restores this valuable feature but can’t find it and google is no help. do you know what I’m talking about?

Hi Jane.
I think I've found what you're looking for.
You need to open the 'Clone Source' floating palette (Menu Bar > Window > Clone Source) and then tick the box marked 'Show Overlay'. This should restore what I think you are after.
