Layer comps let you assemble multiple image variations or even independent pieces of artwork inside a single Adobe Photoshop file. The Layer Comps palette gives you the freedom to save and compare saved versions of a document within the same file, rather than having to create different documents in order to manage a variety of designs.

I love layer comps and I love the ability within InDesign to import specific layer comps. But I find it INCREDIBLY SLOW when importing into InDesign and also updating. It’s okay at home but at work, within a production environment, it is simply t0o0o0o slow. I find it much faster to simply save out individual files. Is there any way around this (am I doing something wrong) or is this how it has to be? If so, why is it so slow and will Adobe address this in future releases? Thanks.
