I don't think Adobe have given any explanation. Neither have they given any sign that they are working on fixing the performance and stability issues. It seems to me that Adobe's position can be summed up like this - "That's not a priority for us. Learn to live with it." As an example of this there is this mini-flamewar between John C.

HN discussionI'm surprised at the number of Adobe supporters in this thread; it's Stockholm syndrome-esque. For those who like the UI: Sure, it's better than the GiMP. But it's still awful. http://adobegripes.tumblr.com/ has been on HN before. It's a compendium of more-or-less small things that are just howlingly wrong.

HN discussionThis "warning" by Rixstep is pure FUD. Rixstep are kind of like the trolls of the Apple development community. They regularly publish "industry watch warnings" about changes in the Mac development ecosystem that are factually incorrect at best, and are intentionally misleading to imply that Apple is killing off Mac development.
