3G Slow, Sluggish Performance
I have read numerous complaints about 3G's slow, sluggish OS. I am a new 3G owner and i too notice degraded performance over time. This seems to clear up when I reboot my phone. Is this known to Apple and is there a fix for it? XPS
From the other comments i've read regarding this problem, it seemed to come along with the release 2.x and 3G. Folks seem to agree that it was something in the new release that's responsible for the problem.

Sluggish performance in Windows 8.1
I'm observing very sluggish performance in Firefox on my Surface Pro using Windows 8.1 RTM. I can't quite track down what's going on, but some startups take as much as 10-12 seconds. Additionally, the overall browser performance is sluggish.
I've tried running in Safe Mode and it's still quite slow.Ok, tried running Nightly. Still seeing VERY poor performance.

Upgraded iPod Touch to v2.2.1, but feels slow/sluggish.
Hello.
I just upgraded my client's two years(?) old iPod Touch to v2.2.1 tonight on his MacBook Pro (Mac OS X 10.5.8 with all updates). He hasn't updated its software for about a year or so he said, and this version was free. He also hasn't synchronized his iPod Touch for a year too (crazy, I know). Anyways, the upgrade and synchronizations were successful, but iPod Touch feels slower/sluggish like in e-mails, Safari, etc.
Is this normal? We didn't try reverting back to defaults. Thank you in advance.Thanks. I forgot to mention that this is an older model that doesn't have 3G. Only wireless for Internet access. And I forgot to follow-up too. It seems OK now. It was weird right after the upgrade and using it, everything felt slower and sluggish. Everything still seems to be still intact and working though.
If it happens again, then I will try your ideas.

I don't recall seeing reduced performance from 2.2.1, in fact I've reverted my 2G Touch back to 2.2.1 from 4.0. Have you tried the basics like:
o Power OFF/ON
o Reset
o Restore from backup
o Restore as a new iPod
Start with the higher steps first to see if you get better performance. -
MacBook Pro 13" Retina running 10.9.5 sluggish performance
My 13" Retina MBP 512GB/8GB RAM running 10.9.5 has been running very sluggish recently. Doesn't appear to be any obvious problems other than Adobe Flash crashes almost hourly while web browsing. Here is my EtreCheck report:

It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal 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 and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
[Process started]
Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
The test results are on the Clipboard.
Please close this window.
[Process completed]
The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I may not agree with them.

There may be other software that is causing your problem, but the Blackberry software regularly crops up as being the cause of slow-downs or unpredictable behaviour. Try uninstalling it using the uninstaller that is hopefully available from Blackberry.
Hopefully others will spot this thread and have some other suggestions. There are a few entries for things I've never heard of (not that that means much ), but there's a chance that they are not compatible with Mavericks and could be contributing to the sluggish performance. -
Hello friends
My PC config is as follows:
OS: Win 7 64bit
CPU: Intel Core2Duo E4300 1.8GHz
RAM: 5GB DDR2
Graphics Card: ATi Radeon 4700 512MB DDR5
HDDs: 160GB, 250GB, 500GB (all SATA) and 80GB (IDE aka PATA)
AV: Avast
Firewall: Comodo
Lr installation: in a separate partition than the default "C:\" of 160GB one (but on the same physical HDD).
I am trying this version of Lr, but I find the performance is extremely sluggish. Mainly the problem occurs whenever a real time rendering is required, for example showing the mask overlay, or the noise and sharpening preview (which can be viewed by pressing Alt key while changing the respective slider). I do not use any other software while working with Lr. Compared to the minimum system requirement of Lr, I believe my PC's config (though old) is quite adequate, still why do I get so sluggish performance? Is there any settings that I should change in Lr to get better performance?
Please help me out.
Thank you.Hi SRoyC,
Well, I'm somewhat outside my area of expertise at this point, since what I'm saying is based on:
* reading
* adding 2 (from what I've gathered in forums), + 2 (related experience).
In otherwords I have no direct experience with i7 processors m'self.
But,
* I've seen a lot of posts of cpu utilization showing <50% cpu utilization (running Lightroom I mean) on souped up systems, and so far none showing >50% - not for more than a "microsecond" anyway.
and
I've read that even in gaming systems users are getting less bang from bucks out of money spent for cpus, past a certain point, these days..
In the old days, it was easy: operations were either bound by cpu or disk. Such is no longer the case, and I haven't kept up with modern CPU architecture well enough to understand or explain details, but you can't get much faster Lr performance by faster disk nor beefier cpus these days - there's some other bottle-neck(s)... - maybe somebody else understands better, but beware a lot of people talk like they know when they don't - they just know they know more than you do and have a good story line ...
So, my guess: i7 won't serve so much better than an i5 (or similarly priced AMD chip) that it would be worth sinking your money there even if it's tight, and so if i7 really expensive where you are, maybe money would be better spent elsewhere (or put in the bank..).. - just my guess... - may not even perform better at all, but as I said: I really dunno for sure...
To be clear: abnormally slow performance is almost always caused be some element in your system that is tripping up Lr (and when I say system: I mean it could be a byte in a data file too, as well as hardware/software..), and NOT due to system spec.
Often Adobe remedies by software changes, but still - until then you gotta trouble-shoot your system/files if you want it to run fast.
PS - I run an AMD Phenom II X4 965 (and SSDs for critical drives), and I get full core utilization (i.e. 100% utilization of all 4 cores, for short intervals anyway - most of the time <100%) and good performance - I've heard claims of faster performance, but I've also heard claims of a lot slower performance by people with beefier systems.
PPS - I just reviewed your current system and it is indeed under powered. I recommend at least 4 cores (6 would be better, dunno 'bout 8, for Lr purposes I mean), at least 3GHz (faster is generally better, but again: past a certain point the cpu will just be idle so no gain), at least 8GB RAM (12-16G if you can afford it, usually more ram than that won't help much if at all). If Lr not working optimally on such a system, then it's time to break out the trouble-shooting handbook...
To reiterate: I'm not sure if a 12-core, 5GHz system with 32GB ram would be significantly faster than a 6-core, 3.5GHz system with 12GB ram, maybe not any.
Also: most operations when Lr is lagging are not stressing the disk much (e.g. the time it takes Lr to read an entire raw file and/or catalog photo record is generally not the problem, so SSDs will help a little, but only a little - surprisingly little..). Granted, it depends on the operation - whole-catalog metadata consolidation: yes, but when editing a single photo in develop module - disk speed makes little difference (except a skosh when initially loading).

Sluggish performance - Mac Mini and MBP?
I'm experiencing sluggish performance on my Mac Mini with Leopard (upgrade installation) when using the genie effect, expose, spaces, gadgets, 3d dock, etc. It's jerky, as if the animation is missing frames. Is it related to the graphics card? I also find my finder painfully slow opening folders.... Any other people experiencing this? Are there any solutions available?
Exactely the same here. I had to disable the 3D dock alltogether, admittedly not a big loss. Sluggishness seems to worsen with a 'complex' desktop picture (graphics card - texture issue?). Also, and most annoyingly, I find that text rendering seems to be much worse, e.g. look at the system menu with an all black or white desktop background. Or a SoulseeX window on top of some other (Carbon app with opacity set to 90% per default). This is a litte better if I set the display to a '2.2 Television gamma' (I have a 23" Cinema display). One thing that i will try is to boot back into 10.4 and see if it's just my imagination but I am pretty sure it's not.

Sluggish performance with OSX 10.9.2?
Since the automatic download of OSX 10.9.2, Cloud 2.0.1, and Tunes 11.1.5 on 26 Feb 2014, I have had prolonged periods of "sluggish" performance on my iMac; slow to open Safari and my home page, very slow sending of email and frequent need to re-enter "sites" to get to the location.
I have brief periods where operating my iMac is a "breeze;" instant connection to Safari and my home page, quick sending of email, and instant entry to web-sites I selected.
And, when I've tried to re-store my 5 and 5s iPhones on iTunes due to rapid battery depletion; I'm informed that "tones" that I've used on the iPhones previously cannot be "copied" to the iPhones.
Any similiar problems? Suggestions?

T520 - 42435gg / Sound stutter and slow Graphic performance with Intel Rapid Storage AHCI Driver
Hi everybody,
I have serious Problems with my 42435gg
Any time I install the Intel Storage AHCI Driver (I've tried plenty of different versions) which is suggested by System Update I experience a horrible Sound stutter and slow Graphic performance in Windows 7 64-Bit.
The funny thing in this case: If the external e-sata port is connected the problems do not occur. If the port is unused again, the stutter begins immediately.
The only thing I can do is using the Windows internal Storage Driver with which I am not able to use my DVD recorder for example.
The device was sent to lenovo for hardware testing with no result. It was sent back without any repairing.
Anybody experience on this?
Kind regards,
DanielDid you try the 11.5 RST beta? Load up DPClat and see if DPC conditions are favorable.

Since upgrading to Leopard (on my MacBook Pro) Safari shows a very sluggish performance, page take over 10 seconds to load. I cleared the cache but the problem persists. Any ideas?
Have you guys ran REPAIR DISK PERMISSIONS? and Cleaned out the disk cache?
Have you tried to startup the computer and holding SHIFT down (old extensions off trick)?
See if problems persist after these things. Sometimes it's a 3rd party app or extension. I've seen these issues from all the freeware shareware stuff over the various versions of Mac OS X. -

Firefox 4 is extremely slow to perform any function on my lap top compared to previous versions. Why? And how do I change this!
Firefox 21 and Firefox 22 running on Windows 7 have been reported to take a long time to "wake up" from sleep. I realize hibernation is different than sleep, but... this is the closest match for your description.
Some users have reported that this problem is resolved in Firefox 23 (currently in beta). Others have had inconsistent luck with minimizing Firefox before letting Windows sleep and other measures.
Please check out this (very long) thread for more information: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/961898 browser freezes after resuming from sleep]
Or jump to the part about Firefox 23: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/961898?page=3#answer-457321
The fact that this just started recently suggests perhaps it is related to another program or update, but I don't think anyone has confirmed the exact interaction that causes the problem. -
Kapsel Fiori Client (FC): self-built iOS FC shows very slow UI performance
Hi Experts,
I have used KapselSDK to build our own FC using:
SMP3.0 KapselSDK SP07_PL00
Cordova 3.6.3
Xcode 6.2
OS X 10.10.2 Yosemite
Enterprise distribution certificate for deplyment
.ipa for iPhone4S, 5 (tested)
ipd also inside Airwatch (tested)
App config:
SMP proxy is not used.
The issue:
We use FC to launch the Fiori Launchpad where there are some Fiori apps. The problem is that after type usr pwd, it took very long time to see the Launchpad UI. Tried the standard FC from Apple Store, and it worked very fast.
Does anyone have any idea? I see some info about the slow UI performance for Android devices which can be solved using crosswalk, but my understanding is that crosswalk is not for iOS.
Thanks.
DongHave you tired testing the same URL through Mobile Safari to see if it is slow also?
We have had reports of slowness on iOS and we are researching. The details are iOS uses HTTP pipelining when the connection is slow. This means iOS bundles several requests (2-3 to our observations) together but the ICM does only response to one of them and ignores the others. After a timeout of about 1 minute (transparent to the FLP) the Safari automatically repeats the ignored requests. It may happen that this happens a second time, but not a third time – then the requests are not repeated anymore. Seems to happen in Mobile Safari Browser more often than Fiori Client and doesn't happen in Mobile Chrome on same device.
Thanks,
Kevin Bates

Sluggish performance- hardware test?
How can I run a Hardware/performance test on my Mac pro 2008(early).
2X3 GHz Quad-Core Xeon.
I am getting very sluggish performance from Motion and Avid programs.
Honestly I saw very little performance increase compared to my old Quad PPC.
I installed 16 gigs RAM from OWC.
ATI Radeon HD 4870 and a eSATA video RAID.
By all accounts this machine should be cooking- but it doesn't.
I ran DW on the Boot drive- but I still have issues.
I have read so much praise for the 2008's as great machines- so I just don't understand why I get so many hang ups.Clone your drive (SuperDuper) so you have an exact backup image.
Question: did you migrate your apps from G5? It sounds like you did.
The nice thing about SuperDuper is it skips all the clutter (cache, temp, logs etc) and optimizes folder and free space.
Are you using drives from G5 that have not been reformatted?
I'm sure there are other things to look for under the hood. -
EXTREMELY SLOW XQUERY PERFORMANCE AND SLOW DOCUMENT INSERTS
EXTREMELY SLOW XQUERY PERFORMANCE AND SLOW DOCUMENT INSERTS.
Resolution History

### Complete Problem Description ###
A test file is being used to do inserts into a schemaless XML DB. The file is inserted and then links are made to 4
different collection folders under /public. The inserts are pretty slow (about
15 per second and the file is small)but the xquery doesn't even complete when
there are 500 documents to query against.
The same xquery has been tested on a competitors system and it has lightening fast performance there. I know it
should likewise be fast on Oracle, but I haven't been able to figure out what
is going on except that I suspect somehow a cartesian product is the result of
the query on Oracle.
### SQLXML, XQUERY, PL/SQL syntax used ###
Here is the key plsql code that calls the DBMS_XDB procedures:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE "XDB"."RESOURCEARRAY" AS VARRAY(500) OF VARCHAR2(256);
PROCEDURE AddOrReplaceResource(
resourceUri VARCHAR2,
resourceContents SYS.XMLTYPE,
public_collections in ResourceArray
) AS
b BOOLEAN;
privateResourceUri path_view.path%TYPE;
resource_exists EXCEPTION;
pragma exception_init(resource_exists,-31003);
BEGIN
/* Store the document in private folder */
privateResourceUri := GetPrivateResourceUri(resourceUri);
BEGIN
b := dbms_xdb.createResource(privateResourceUri, resourceContents);
EXCEPTION
WHEN resource_exists THEN
DELETE FROM resource_view WHERE equals_path(res, privateResourceUri)=1;
b := dbms_xdb.createResource(privateResourceUri, resourceContents);
END;
/* add a link in /public/<collection-name> for each collection passed in */
FOR i IN 1 .. public_collections.count LOOP
BEGIN
dbms_xdb.link(privateResourceUri,public_collections(i),resourceUri);
EXCEPTION
WHEN resource_exists THEN
dbms_xdb.deleteResource(concat(concat(public_collections(i),'/'),resourceUri));
dbms_xdb.link(privateResourceUri,public_collections(i),resourceUri);
END;
END LOOP;
COMMIT;
END;
FUNCTION GetPrivateResourceUri(
resourceUri VARCHAR2
) RETURN VARCHAR2 AS
BEGIN
return concat('/ems/docs/',REGEXP_SUBSTR(resourceUri,'[a-zA-z0-9.-]*$'));
END;
### Info for XML Querying ###
Here is the XQuery and a sample of the output follows:
declare namespace c2ns="urn:xmlns:NCC-C2IEDM";
for $cotEvent in collection("/public")/event
return
<cotEntity>
{$cotEvent}
{for $d in collection("/public")/c2ns:OpContextMembership[c2ns:Entity/c2ns:EntityIdentifier
/c2ns:EntityId=xs:string($cotEvent/@uid)]
return
$d
</cotEntity>
Sample output:
<cotEntity><event how="m-r" opex="o-" version="2" uid="XXX541113454" type="a-h-G-" stale="2007-03-05T15:36:26.000Z"
