Safari needs a swift kick in the pants


Recommended Posts

I have the same issues even in 10.3.3

timdorr what other apps do you use frequently? I am starting to think there is an issue with apple's webkit

I've normally got Adium, Mail.app, NetNewsWire and often Terminal.app open. I've also got APE running with ShapeShifter (I'm on the beta team, so I've been having this across a multitude of versions of SS) and DeMetalifizer running. That's about it.

Have you guys who are still having problems, reboot, repair permissions and reboot again? Because my issues did not go away until I did that after the 10.3.3 update.

yes it did greatly improve performance safari still beachballs but far less often

timdorr, some of the apps you listed use the webkit and are the same types of things i run

have you tried running safari without any of the webkit apps open? do you notice a difference?

This is going to tick off some of you with fast machines, but Safari runs just fine on my Pismo! No beachballing at all, and only a minor lag when I'm typing rather fast (about 45-60 wpm). This is with a couple of other programs running (mainly Yahoo Messenger and Thoth).

edit: oops, I need to update my sig, as I'm now running 10.3.3 (but Safari has been the same on 10.3.2 as well).

Followed the above instructions, still seems just as slow. Never beachballed on me before or after the update, but still slow :(

I second the swift kick in the pants...Reminds me of using Netscape on a Windows box.
