10.7.4 caused massive performance drop

Since updating, my computer is barely usable. Geekbench score fell from ~5400 to ~ 2300, so it's not just my imagination. I was exporting video and the processor didn't even feel warm, but Activity Monitor reported that it was giving it all the power it had. Anybody else seen this? I'm on a 13" mid 2011 Air with the i7 nad 256GB SSD.

Ran the 32-bit tests and mine went from 5838 (pre-upgrade) to 5880 (post upgrade). Have you got everything else shut down when running the benchmarks?

Webkit box shadow causes massive performance issues

when loading pages within the webkit container, those that have webkit box shadow end up scrolling really slow, and some pages end up more erratic than others.
Here's a few pages:
http://thenextweb.com (slow)
http://ign.com (almost can't browse)
http://shoemoney.com (shuts down the air app)
Is there someway to disable html5/css3 features?
Also, scrolling works for these sites on the Mac.
Thank you for your help.

ACPI.sys, NDIS.sys, and TCPIP.sys causing massive DPC latency spikes

I am running Win 7 Ultimate. I recently reinstalled my OS. Using LatencyMon and DPCLatency checker, I've noticed that these three drivers are causing massive spikes. How do I replace these files with non-problematic files?
(Originally, my computer was on Home Prem, I did an anytime upgrade to Ultimate, this time I did a clean install)
Thanks.

Dear all,
I am also doing home recording with my computer, via firewire and I also see latency spikes.
Its for an advanced home user difficult to judge, what is causing issues.
Audio clicks and drops were mainly caused on my (high performance system) by non optimal combination of Firewire Card/Chipset, Windows 7 Firewire driver and driver of the audio Interface, but which I could finally solve.
My Solution for my system:
- 1st I had to buy a new firewire card with recommended chipset of audio interface vendor
- Additionally I had to use the Win7 Firewire "legacy" driver
-> Then my audio clicks and drops went away.
Month later the vendor releases a new version of his Mixer/driver for the audio interface (Saffire mix control).
And what shall I tell:
- the normal Win7 firewire driver could be chosen (which seems to be more optimized in terms of latency)
- under Cubase (with setting "optimize cubase for windows") the firewire latency went down from 200us to even 76-90us on average.
Of course Microsoft shall work on optimizing their OS, I want an optimized OS as good base for everything.
But all my problems went away in terms of recording, at least on my system, when I optimized things around Mircrosoft.
With a Laptop this might be a different issue ..
LatencyMon v3.0: CONCLUSION
Your system seems to have difficulty handling real-time audio and other tasks. You may experience drop outs, clicks or pops due to buffer underruns. One or more DPC routines belonging to a driver running in your system appear to be executing for too long. At
least one detected problem appears to be network related. You may have to disable wireless adapters to get better results.

Unexpected performance drop/temperature rises

Mid 2012 Macbook Pro
2.3Ghz intel i7
4GB 1600MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024MB
Non retina (1440x900)
I have windows 8 installed (using bootcamp)
Using osx Yosemite
The issue:
Recently, my mac has been overheating to the point of it being far too hot to touch, and while using demanding applications I have experienced large performance drops. I have been using these applications for a long time, and this is only a recent development. I've tried running diagnostics, but for some reason was unable to connect to the internet via wifi or cable. In an attempt to increase ventilation, I've had the back of my macbook (where the fan exits are) propped up slightly on a book. This has done nothing to reduce operating temperatures. The performance drops have also impacted less demanding applications, such as chrome. I think that there is an issue with the cooling system, but I'm not sure if that's the issue. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this, and if I can fix it? Also, my mac is still covered by my AppleCare extended warranty.

Great! Make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar.
In the mean time I suggest that you open the MBP and see if there is dirt and debris inside. Look especially at the fan. If so clean it out. You will need a #00 PHILLIPS driver.
You might also consider installing iStat menus and see exactly what temperatures you are experiencing:

Try on start up OPTION+D and see if that will engage the Apple Hardware Test.

MSI GT683r Massive fps drop (CPU overheating)

System Information:
http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GT683.html
OS: Windows 7
Brand: MSI GT683R-242
CPU: intel quad core i7-2630QM @ 2.00 GHz
GPU: Nvidia GTX 560M 1.5 GB GDDR5
RAM: DDRIII 16GB(4GB*4)
HDD: 1TB (500GB*2 RAID 0)7200 RPM
Hello, I'm having a lot of problems with my cpu temperature being high especially when gaming and this results in getting intermittent FPS drops when gaming. My fps when gaming drops to about 10fps (this doesn't necessarily happen when I'm in a particular FPS intensive condition either, could happen when I'm just walking around in the world). I've noticed my CPU temperature is close to 90 degrees when this occurs (I realize it's due to the core temperature being too high). It shouldn't matter what game since I should not get these FPS problems with a laptop like this but the game I play is a MMORPG called Rift.
After playing Rift for about 1 hour and a half mainly in pvp battlegrounds (15 players per team in the battleground so a total of 30 players), my core temp for my cpu reach the high 80 degrees and I’ve received 4-5 massive fps drops while playing during this time. I was able to screenshot my FPS during the FPS drops and I obtained a few screenshots while playing in game. See screenshots below.
NOTE1: CPU core Temperature is shown in the upper right of the screenshots, the running processes from the task manager is also shown in most of these screenshots.
NOTE2: I play with the native resolution of my laptop 1920 x 1080. I normally play windowed full screen but I include the CPU core temperatures & Task Manager so it wasn't window full screen. Also, I did not have the Turbo and the Nvidia Overclock Tool activated but I've tried both in the past and have not noticed a noticeable difference in my FPS drops while using them. (I also get FPS drops while using the Turbo and Nvidia Overclock Tool).
NOTE3: I play the game with medium settings to try to alleviate this FPS problem but I've had FPS problems still happens even in low settings.
After restarting my computer my idle temperature on all my 4 cores according to core temperature sits around 45 degrees (fluctuation + / - 2 to 3 degrees) with practically no processes running (close to 100k memory in the task manager processes).
When loading up Rift and being IDLE in town my cpu temperature fluctuates between 50 and 61 degrees. CPU usage in task manager fluctuates between 10-16%.
My Normal FPS in a combat environment playing Rift (fluctuates a little obviously but it's usually in the 25 FPS range), FPS can be seen on the bottom right of the Rift client (performance area)
FPS drop result after CPU temp overheating, FPS can be seen on the bottom right of the Rift client (performance area). The CPU temperature was in the high 80's before this FPS drop.
CPU temperatures while idling in town after a battleground (I also get FPS drops in town and dungeons as well but usually not as frequent as I do in a battleground or in Raids)
CPU temperatures while killing a boss in a raid, there were probably about 100 players in the environment, I had a huge FPS drop just after taking this screenshot
I also took a Screenshot of my core temp about an hour after I stopped playing, My CPU temperature was constantly fluctuating between the low 60's to high 70's when my computer only had a few processes running.
I've looked around for a solution for this problem but I can't seem to find one. I haven't physically opened my laptop to check if there's an issue inside but I've only started having this FPS problem since about 2 months. I had no FPS problems until recently.
Not sure if it matters or not but my NVIDA driver version is 296.10. I've tried reverting to the previous driver to see if this latest driver update was the problem but it didn't change anything. Other things I've tried is changing some settings in the NVIDIA control pannel but this has not worked either. I've even tried playing my game on the lowest settings and still had intermittent FPS drops. I've browsed through the forums and some people have suggested flashing the BIOS but I'm a bit skeptical to do that. I also attempted to call MSI customer support and left a message but they have not returned my call yet. Anyone got any suggestions to fix this problem?

The simple solution is to open the bottom and blow out the air through the center of the fan with canned air. The vents arent plugged but the fan itself probably looks like a fuzzy mop. Shoudl fix your problem and will not void your warranty.
The ideal solution is to pop the heatsyncs of the CPU and GPU, replace whatever crap their using with artic silver and appreciate a refined machine. Not only will you not have overheats but your machine will use its fan less and thus be quieter. This WILL void your warranty... but its worth it. Just dont do it unless you are savy.
Other then that. Lifting the laptop off the ground is ESSENTIAL. Look at the bottom. It has vents. Ask yourself.. "Self.. what could these vents possibly be for?" Self will hopefully reply "Well Self, I would say they are there for cooling." "SO self these vents have a purpose???" "Yes, self, they do. Their purpose is cooling and airflow" "Well then why do we not have airspace allowing air to actually get into these vents?" "Because self.. we like it flat.... Like a tire thats soon to be on fire..." Hopefully after that your enlightened self will go get a stand. If you want the lowest profile you can get you need a thin cooler system, if you dont care about that just buy a stand that permits airspace and flow. I mean your running an advanced gaming rig. In a normal box these components may have 4+ fans... Your laptop has one. Help it out.
The good news is perhaps cooking your cpu will have a burn in effect and make it clock to higher speeds... However I doubt it. Chances are you are cooking everything from said chip to your HDs and you should stop, because that MIGHT void your warranty.

Sudden MBP Retina 15" gaming performance drop

Hi there,
I've owned my Macbook Pro Retina since a few weeks after it came out last year, and have generally loved using it. However, I'm starting to worry now as I've noticed a severe performance drop lately in games.
I've not booted into Bootcamp (Windows 8 x64) for about two months now, but today I loaded up Skyrim, and the performance was atrocious. The game was unplayable at 1920x1200 on high, unmodded. It lags horribly - 10FPS at most. I used to be able to play this game heavily modded and achieve a high FPS. I've noticed a performance drop with other games as well, much lower than what I'd expect from this machine.
I've checked out GPU-Z and the 650M GT clocks up to 900MHz when the game launches.
I'm not sure what has caused this but I've done some reading and people have suggested an "SMC Reset" - I've tried this to no avail. If anyone could lend any advice I'd greatly appreciate it.

Well one problem is that bootcamp hasn't been updated to support Windows 8 yet, so there may be driver issues there. I have experienced this problems and so have others in this forum and an smc reset has fixed the majority. Are you sure you are performing the SMC reset correctly? Also, try a PRAM reset and see if that helps resolve the issue.

Bug report: Energy Manager causes slow performance...

Very slow Windows Startup..
Energy Manager's plans and the problem occured using any plan as I remember, and it wasn't an issue with the maximum processor state. I had heavy disk usage, especially access to the Page File, which is what the person in the second link I posted also described. CPU usage was low. The disk usage was seemingly not related to Energy Manager (Chrome was usually the worst), but removing Energy Manager completely resolved the problem. If you would find it helpful. I'm quite confident that even with Maximum Processor state at %100, CPU usage was low when it was slow, and that disk access was the culprit.
previously have use 1.0.0.31 or 32 not sure.
Windows 8.1
Im using Lenovo Energy Management Driver
1.0.0.28
4.6.2014

I actually have the same problem. Sorry to work on a old thread, but...
I've got my Lenovo B50-70 less than 1 month ago, and had switched it to SSD and had set everything up and is working perfectly. However there are a bunch of lenovo programs that came pre-installed. This computer is used mainly for work and I really don't like programs that suddenly pop-up and ask you to do stuff, as it is quite distracting, and with Lenovo Energy Manager being one of them so I removed it. (I did do some research before I remove...)
Everything was fine, until when I try to switch on my wifi (I usually have it off, as I use LAN most of the time)... For the B50-70 there is a airplane button on F7, which allow the user to switch wifi and bluetooth on/off. That button was unresponsive... After some digging it is actually related to the power energy manager being removed. So I've downloaded the latest version from Lenovo and it was working again...
However though, whenever I start my computer it is taking so long to start... And I tried uninstalling the power energy manager and it solved the problem... And I am stuck with either having no wifi on/off ability or a really slow boot, which loses the whole purpose of the SSD. After you enter your username and password it originally takes around 5~10 seconds to login, now it takes over 1 minute.
I have found this other link, which says Lenovo Power Manager having the same problem.
https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkVantage-Technologies/Bug-report-Power-Manager-causes-slow-performa...
There is a solution, which you can change the registry to switch a function off. I've tried it and it didn't work, which is not surprising as it's a different program.. But I am hoping that Lenovo can provide a similar solution for Lenovo Energy Manager...

The upgrade to Firefox 4 is causing massive problems with my computer. How do I uninstall it and go back to using the previous version?

Firefox 4 is absolutely awful - it is causing massive problems with my computer. How do I uninstall Firefox 4 and go back to the previous version of Firefox?

According to the instructions given on the Norton Community forum under "Other Norton Products/Comcast-Customers - Norton Toolbar Problem in Firefox 10", I have done everything necessary. And I do have a Norton toolbar (Safe Web and Identity Safe) when I open Firefox 10. As was mentioned in the previous posts here, you need to run manual LiveUpdate then reboot until you have version 5.2.0.13. Then reboot and run manual LiveUpdate again and reboot once more. One thing that I noticed is that Norton never told me that it had updated the patch for Firefox 10, so I didn't know. I guess if you have the toolbar when you run Firefox 10, then you have done it all.

Reader causing issues with dropped underscores in courier new font

When converting a microsoft word document in 2013 or 2007 to a PDF is causing issues with dropped underscores. It only seems to happen in courier new. For instance if I have _someCode, when converting this over to a PDF file I will sometimes see _someCode and sometimes I will see someCode. If I open this file in a different pdf reader then it looks correct 100% of the time. If I copy and paste into another application then the underscore shows. This is a major issue for people putting code into a PDF document as underscores are important and courier new is what we often use.

I love how quick you are to throw Microsoft under the bus. Often it is their fault. In this case I believe you are 100% wrong and absolutely short sighted to ignore this. As I said in my original email, which you apparently missed, I have tried this in multiple PDF viewers and Adobe Reader is the ONLY reader that misses the underscores. Foxit, PDF Exchange and Sumatra all render it perfectly. Adobe reader missed 6 underscores in my document that has 18 underscores. 30% of the time in this document Adobe Reader makes the underscore invisible. And if I switch the zoom to 100% instead of 148% (which is the default for me for some reason) then Adobe Reader misses 7 of them. This doesnt occur in the other readers. Blame Microsoft all you want but the simple fact is that Adobe Reader has issues reading courier new's underscores. It needs to be fixed.

MacBook Pro late 2011 Battery Performance drop dramatically

MacBook Pro late 2011 Battery Performance drop dramatically
9 months 94 cycles and its health is now at 89%

Does the system still run off the battery only? Does it run for a few hours off the battery only? Then No it is not defective and no Apple will do nothing for you and No Applecare does not cover Consumable items which the battery is one of those.
The only time Apple MAY, and that is BIG MAY, replace the battery is within the first year and only if Apple Deems the battery to be defective. Fat chance of that as long as the system runs off the battery for any length of time.

Performance drop after new hardrive,

the performance dropped drasticly after a I superdupered yje old Hardrive to the new disc.
not only in Pro logic but also in Ableton Live....?
any ideas....
thx Daniel

What I meant was that many hard drives come formatted for Windows and need to be reformatted for Apple machines, but you've certainly found the answer in your drive's speed.

Performance drop around 20% after adding an index

Hi,
I have an xml file (around 300 Kb, 3500 Nodes), the application internal works with dbxml handles but for display purposes I need xpaths for each node. First I was calculating them on request, but for requests with a lot of nodes it just takes too long (also memory usage was a big issue). In order to improve the performance I'm building a kind of metadata file after the import of the original document. The structure of this metadata file is:
<data>
    <node idx:id="<berkeley dbxml node handle>">
        <xpath>...here some xpath...</xpath>
    </node>
</data>That improved significantly the memory usage, but the response time is still a little bit below acceptable. Now I've thought, that adding an index to that metadata file would do it, BUT it doubled the response time. In the shell (with a much simpler query) the performance drop is around 20%.
Query in the shell:
doc("container.dbxml/test.xml.metadata")/data/node[@idx:id="BgIBBQAO"]/xpathQueryPlan without index:
<XQuery>
<DbXmlNav>
    <QueryPlanFunction result="document" container="container.dbxml">
      <OQPlan>D(node-metadata-equality-string,name:http://www.sleepycat.com/2002/dbxml,=,'test.xml.metadata',U)</OQPlan>

</DbXmlNav>
</XQueryChanging query to
doc("container.dbxml/test.xml.metadata")//node[@idx:id="BgIBBQAO"]/xpathslows down the query more than adding the index.
In my application I've also tried setIndexNodes(true) on my container, the response time increased by factor 10... Am I doing something wrong?
Please tell me, if you need more information.
Best regards,
Wadim
Berkeley DBXML 2.3.10 (Patches 1-9, Patches 1-2 Berkeley DB)
Java 1.6
WinXP Pro SP2

In my application, without fetching the metadata a query for 10 nodes takes 6ms, with fetching the metadata 6s (so around 1000 times slower).
I could go down to 4.5s after changing:
declare variable $METADATA := doc(concat($CONTAINER,'/',$DOCUMENT,'.metadata'))/data;and then in the function:
distinct-values($METADATA/node[@idx:id = $id]/xpath)to:
declare variable $METADATA := concat($CONTAINER,'/',$DOCUMENT,'.metadata');and in the function:
doc($METADATA)/data/node[@idx:id = $id]/xpath I've also seen dbxml:lookup-attribute-index function, but calling ist like this
dbxml:lookup-attribute-index($CONTAINER,"id")[1]results in:

BPC 7.5 AfterRange Causes Extreme Performance Issue

In a report when I apply second AfterRange the run time goes from under 2 minutes to 15 minutes. I know there are performance penalties for using Before/AfterRange but I have never seen the discrepancy to this proportion.
Report contains 1 Column (Time) and 4 Rows in Expansion. The first range which causes no issues for Cost Centers is defined Q73:V74, the range which causes the performance issue and applies for each Employee is defined as Q71:V72
To test this I have two versions of essentially the same report, one with only Cost Center AfterRange and this version runs in less than 2 minutes, then I have the other version in which I have added one more AfterRange to another column and that's when the hell breaks loose and this version of the report runs in 15 minutes. The number of records is roughly 2000, and I realize that the range causing the issue is applied on pretty much every rcord in result set but still I'd not expect the run time to increase by this much.
BPC Experts, ideas on what could be causing this issue, any help would be highly appreciated. thanks!

Hi
1> Please try to restart your Gernal Server
2> Check after optimization that helps
