Safari brow. very slow on windows platform. Why ?

Hello everyone!
I am Italian and this is my first post, and I want your help.
Using Safari on a Vaio Sony with Windows XP SP3, and I have a big problem:
The opening of the Safari browser when the computer is very..very slow!
Indeed, to start Safari it takes from 40 to 50 seconds, and other
sometimes even more ... how can I solve this problem?
Thank you all !
massimo

I seems to have the same problem too!
It is like Safari is frozen but this only happen when I first launch Safari. After about a minute or so, Safari 'wakes up' and start loading web pages, and browsing seems to be fine. This issue I think started ever since I install XP SP3.
I am using AMD Atholon 64 X2 3800, with 2GB of RAM. Checked Task Manager and Safari is only using around 90MB so it is not hogging all the memory. Not sure why this happen.
Now I just start Safari, walked away for a coffee and leave it running throughout.

Hello. I am using MacBook Air. Safari is very slow and it doesn't open many websites. for instance: dizi-mag.com . please help me

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them.
1. Have you restarted your router and broadband modem since you first noticed the problem? If the answer is no, do that now and see whether there's any change.
2. Are any other web browsers installed, and are they also slow?
3. What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
4. Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they also slow?
5. If you can test Safari on another network, is it slow there too?
6. If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

Since installing OS X 10.8.2 Safari is very slow to open sites

Since installing OS X 10.8.2 Safari is very slow to open sites

Do you get a notice that Safari has quit unexpectedly? If so, please do the following.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Safari was very slow in opening up Google sites. I found a discussion thread that suggested changing the "Configure IPv6" setting to "Off" in the System Preferences, Network, Advanced, TCP/IP section. That seems to work well. Are there any risks?

Nope. You can always reverse that if you choose.

WebDav Very Slow on Windows 7 Pro

Environment:
Hosted SharePoint 2010
Two laptops on a Windows Domain: 1) Windows 7 Pro 32-bit & IE11 and 2) Windows 7 Pro 64-bit & IE11.
Problem:
WebDAV is VERY slow on Windows 7 only. When using WebDAV on Windows 8 or using the web portal (browser), file uploads are very fast. We've performed extensive testing as follows with no success.
Installed or confirmed SP1 was installed
Disabled "Automatic Detect Settings" within Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings.
Forced port 443 within URL upon mapping a drive (ex. <URL>:443)
Logged in using the local administrator's profile
Detached computer from domain and used the local administrator's profile

Hi Wleblanc,
“WebDAV is VERY slow on Windows 7 only. When using WebDAV on Windows 8 or using the web portal (browser), file uploads are very fast.”
Do you mean only the uploading operation in WebDAV of Windows 7 is slow or the whole WebDav performance is slow ?
Please check this service ”Webclient” from the service control .
I noticed that the process of creating a WebDAV connection is a little different in Windows 7 and Windows 8 .Someone indeed informed the information that this service will affect the WebDAV performance.
Here are links for reference:

Very slow scrolling window thumbnails clips

Very slow scrolling windows with thumbnail clips. The more files in the event, the worse it gets. It is very frustrating. Is in others it is the same? I have MacOookPro i7 early 2011, thunderbolt drives RAID0, 16GB memory, FCPX 10.0.7. After the hardware is decent.
Give some feedback, thank you.
P.S. I might add that this disadvantage are found from version 10.0.0.

You might want to look at either booting from your install dvd (insert, restart and hold 'C' down) and running disk repair from Utilities. Alternatively, and I always suggest any Mac user should have at least one, a 3rd party disk utility like DiskWarrior (there are others) is extremely useful.

My photoshop cs6 seems to be running very slow lately--not sure why?

Have you tried resetting your PRAM?
Shut the Mac down.
Holding the Cmd+Opt+P+R keys, press the power button.
Listen for the "startup chime" to sound three times and release the keys.
It should run better after it finishes booting up.

Safari works very slow

Since several days ago Safari runs very slow. I have cleaned the computer, big files, reseted safari, turned off DNS, turned on again.. and many more tips found but no luck. I would apprecieate you help.
thanks

If you have not done so lately, empty the Safari cache. Press Command + Option + E on your keyboard.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, try troubleshooting plug-ins and extensions ...
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab.
Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
If it's not a plug-in issue, select the Extensions tab. If there are any extensions installed, turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that made a difference, uninstall one at a time, quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the culprit.
When you post, it helps to tell us which OS X your Mac has installed, and in this case, which version of Safari.

Safari is very slow, needs a long time to open a website

Hello there,
I´m using the version Version 7.0.4 on my iMac. The download of websites is very slow. What can I do? Is there any possibilty to make the safari faster?
Thank you very much for your help.

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Log out and log back in. Any change?
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

There are many possible causes for problems with web browsing. Below are some simple steps that may help either to solve the problem or isolate the cause.
Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Restart your router and also your broadband device, if they're separate.
2. If you connect to the the router with Wi-Fi, turn off Wi-Fi and then back on.
3. If you connect with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi.
4. If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If the Downloads button (with the icon of a downward-pointing arrow) is showing in the toolbar, click it and then click Clear in the box that appears. The download history will be removed.
5. Select the Extensions tab in the Preferences window. Turn all extensions OFF and test. If there's an improvement, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
6. If you're running OS X 10.10 or later, select the Search tab. Uncheck the box marked
          Enable Quick Website Search
if it's checked.
7. If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
          Stop plug-ins to save power
Quit and relaunch the browser.
8. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest.
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
9. Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
10. If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test.
11. If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test.
12. Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the boxes marked Safari and Photos, if they're checked.
13. Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and if so, are they affected?
14. If you can, test Safari on another network.
15. Start up in Recovery mode. In the OS X Utilities screen, select Get Help Online. A clean copy of Safari will launch. No plugins, such as Flash, will be available. While in Recovery, you'll have no access to your saved bookmarks or passwords, so make a note of those before you begin, if they're needed for the test.

Since I updated to os X 10.8.4 Safari is very slow and crashes

Java 2D very slow with Windows XP

Hi all!
I'm writing an isometric game engine using Java 2D API, in full-screen exclusive mode and using all the advantages of the new VolatileImage class. The engine is almost finished, I'm testing it putting some animated players on screen and showing the frame rate of the engine. Everything went right, frame rate was very high in Linux and Windows 98/Me. But when I try to run the engine on Windows XP I can only get 5 or 6 fps!!!! And I don't know why!! It seems that XP makes Java run very slow... at least when using Java2D...
Please, anyone knows why the performance is reduced??? Is there a new JRE release for Windows XP?? I'm using JDK 1.4.1.
Thanks for your help.

If you're using the Fullscreen API, then you're using BufferStrategy, thus you shouldn't use VolatileImages, it does this for you in the background. You shouldn't create any buffers, simply use the one provided. I'm assuming your problem probably lies in transparency. I've made an isometric engine using the fullscreen API that has run with complete 60fps page flipping. I would assume your bottle-neck lies in:
Transparencys (These are very slow, there is a way to make a bitmask, much like you'd do in DirectX)
Dynamic Memory allocation/Alpha rendering in your animation loop. (You need to allocate ALL of the colors you're going to use, and avoid using an alpha component if you want to avoid the VM getting bogged down by the garbage collector because you're allocating 30 Color objects a second).
I made a Color object that was some what hacked together that has methods to allow you to access it's values for doing this kind of thing, allocating your scheme before hand is an easier approach.
The method that performs the page flipping is a BLOCKING method, so you should orient your drawing before it, and not assume it's simply placing a request, like repaint does.

Touch is acting very slow lately...why?

I've noticed over the past couple days that my iPod has been very slow. It's like it starts checking for mail and just keeps checking and checking and then it'll freeze for like, 3 or 4 minutes before it's usable again.
It'll act the same way sometimes when I simply want to swipe between pages or even open up the note pad or something. It's really odd because I've never had any problems with it up until this point.
I've gone in and changed the push settings, emptied out my history and cache for safari, deleted a couple apps that I thought may be causing it, but it's still doing it. Any thoughts on why this might be happening and how I might go about fixing it? Thanks

how much memory are you using up?
might be worth doing a restore, will clean it up. i restored my ipod yesterday and managed to free up a lot of the memory from 'other'.
