Well...you might have to go back to using PS. Former use of Gimp 1.2 is really irrevent to present use 
I go back to Gimp 2.2, things have moved on.
Lets have a few user parameters.
Are you using Windows or Linux? - your user profile lists both.
You are using Wacom tablet. Why did you need to force recognition? Can you expand on that? In linux even my ancient Wacom volito is supported. However, could be a problem with Windows.
24 Mp images, big but not that big, my lumix takes 18 Mp and Gimp handles those ok. (my laptop Kubuntu 16.04 is I5 6200U 8 GB memory) but always a but, are you short on disk space?
Yes, do not use multiple processors in Gimp 2.9 use Edit -> Preferences -> System Resources set Number of threads to use to 1
That was fixed back in Gimp 2.8.16 or 2.8.18 - what version of Gimp are you using?

Quote:Second question - I tried Gimp 2.9 - despite 2 core support it is significantly slower (more lag), and after enabling 16-bit depth it is even worse. Is 2.9 slower than 2.8?
