8GB RAM but still running slow ?

Hello,
my mac has been running very slow lately,even though i have 8GM RAM and i don't run any 'heavy' music\video apps.
i downloaded Memory Clean and it usually shows i have less then 100 MB free,
even when i run just a few apps like Safari and Pages.
so i made a check with EtreCheck,
looks like i got a few problems..
can anyone tell me how to solve them ?

That is a lot of page outs for just a day and a half of being up.  It is most likely the reason why Mac OS X terminated a lot of its daemons to give more space to what you were doing at the time.  Did you do something in the 32 hours your system was up before the EtreCheck that would account for that high pageout number?  Something that is very VERY Memory Intensive?
You Activity Monitor Memory display has Safari consuming a lot of RAM 1.6+GB.  That is a bit high.  How may tabs do you have open?  Is it possible you have too many open, or that one of the web sites you are visiting has Javascript that is consuming lots of RAM on behalf of the web site?
You kernel_task looked about right for 8GB of RAM. Most of that is virtual memory page tables for the apps you are running.  As a point of comparison, I have 16GB and my kernel_task is 1.25GB of RAM.
Ahat are these processes?

  • 8GB RAM but still uses scratchdisk, why?

    Hey,
    running x64 version of Photoshop CS5 with windows 7 proffessional and 8gb ram but I still occasionaly (if the HDD is near full) get a "could not complete ... scratchdisk full" or similar error message (even just for simple tasks such a CtrlTransform or rotation).
    It has long bugged me that it is even using a scratchdisk when it has access to 8gb ram, any explanation? It doesn't run extremely slow or anything so it can't be page filing *that* much.
    Thanks in advance

    Ok, I just ran a quick test and made a new black document 300000x300000px and duplicated the base layer 10 times.
    I just go to use the brush tool on one of the layers and get "could not use the brush tool because the scratchdisks are full".
    Windows Taskmanager reckons photoshop is using about 300mb RAM so it shouldn't even be *thinking* about page filing yet, and as you said, HDDs are dirt cheap and it has access to more than 1.5tb worth of internal HDDs if really wants to scratchdisk...
    it feels like it's limited both in it's use of ram and use of hdd but i just double checked and it is allowed ~6gb ram and all HDDs are checked to be used as scratchdisks. perplexed
    *edit*: it has allocated every scrap of space to itself on every hard drive available including an external so about 2.5TB
    so why didn't it use reall memory first?
    *edit2:* oh but i'm starting to see what's going on, in the same way it didn't need to write all those blank layers to the hdd it didn't actually need to use all that ram, each new layer was probably just a copy on-write pointer which means my test was meaningless

  • Upgraded memory but still running slow and DVD burner ?

    Hi guys.
    I just got the new iBook g4 12' laptop in August with 512 MB. I just added another 512 MB today and system profiler recognizes it. However, I don't see any improvements in my speed. In fact, start up is slower since I added the memory and I have seen the beach ball numerous times.
    Is there something I need to do?
    Also, I just got an external DVD burner (a Pioneer R-110 Dual Layer burner and is recognized by my system. I have Toast (6.1.1.) however, I cannot seem to burn Dual Layer DVDs on it. Do I need to upgrade to the 7.0 version or is there a better software I should get for burning Dual Layer DVDs?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello,
    Although the profiler recognizes the memory, it may not still agree with the system. Have you tried removing the ram and see if there is a speed increase?
    If not, memory is a user serviceable repair and you may do it without voiding your applecare coverage. Now, here are instructions from Apple on how to do it. Please be sure you touch some metal surface before touching the memory. Do not touch any of the metal in the computer unless instructed to do so. Touching the metal will omit any static electricity in your body. Here is the link:
    Click Here
    That should tell you weather or not your problem is the memory.
    Good Luck,

    Try using another video player such as VLC and see if you can get better results. There are a load of different things that can bog down your computer when watching video and, as far as I'm concerned, QT is not the best app around for watching video.

  • Strange problem... Query runs faster, but report runs slow...

    Hi Gurus,
    We are using Report 10g on 10g Application server and solaris. we created a report on a table which has 10,000 rows. The report has 25 columns. when we run this query in Toad it took 12 sec for fetching all these 10,000 rows
    But when we run the report with Destype = 'FILE' and Desformat = 'DELIMITEDDDATA', it is taking 5 to 8 minutes
    to open in excel ( we concatenated mimetype=vnd-msexcel at the end of the url if the Destype=FILE). We removed the layout in the report as it is taking 10 to 15 mins to run to Screen with Desformat=HTML/PDF(formating pages taking more time). We are wondering why DELIMITEDDATA format is taking long time as it runs only query.
    Does RWSERVLET take more time of writing the data to the Physical file in the cache dir? Our cache size is 1 GB. we have 2 report servers clustered. Tracing is off.
    Please advise me if there are any report server settings to boost the performance.
    Thanks alot,
    Ram.

  • Since installing yosemite my computer/screen blacks out, but still running

    Since installing yosemite last week, my computer/screen blacks out, but still running. I have since rebooted everything, started from scratch and utilizing my external drive transferred all files/apps back. Did not help, in fact it is getting worse. Computer screen blacks out every 5 min or so and have to power up again. Also, continue to get Java message updates even after all have been updated over and over again. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM... I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM? Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?

    I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM...
    I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM?
    Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?
    I've learned  by reading other topics that I can't upgrade my graphics card on my Macbook Pro because it's soldered into the motherboard or somthing like that, but please tell me if there is any way to get more video ram by chaning some setting or upgrading something else. I'd also like to know why I only have 256MB of VRAM when I have 8GB of RAM, since I have 8GB of RAM I thought I was supposed to have 560mb of VRAM...
    So the two questions are...
    Is there any way to upgrade my VRAM, so that I can play games on steam?
    Why do I only have 256MB VRAM when I have 8GB total RAM?
    Other Info:
    I have a quad core i7 Processor.
    My graphcics card is the AMD Radeon HD 6490M.
    I am also trying to play games on my BOOTCAMPed side of my mac, or my Windows 7 Professional side.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH IF YOU CAN REPLY,
    Dylan

    The only two items that a user can change on a MBP are the RAM and HDD (Retinas not included).  You have what the unit came with and the only way you will be able to change that is to purchase a MBP with superior graphics
    If you are very much into gaming, the I suggest A PC.  They are far superior for that type of application to a MBP.
    Ciao.

  • Macbook Pro still running slow after reformat

    So my Macbook pro, which is about 3-4 years old now, just started running slow after the latest update i did, whichever the latest one was. Possibly a security update or whatever it was. So i decided it was time to reformat and just clear out the stuff on my computer so i erased the HD and reinstalled Snow Leopard. After all that it still lags and is slow. Its slow on things like scrolling down a web page, or opening programs, or when i use expose, it isn't super smooth like it normally is.
    My MBP has 4gb of ram and 2.2ghz. I have also tried to repair the disk permissions, but didnt seem to help drastically. Any suggestions?

    Hi there,
    Have you applied all updates? Using Software Update or manually? Checked for EFI and SMC versions?
    Don't you have any clue from Console logs?
    Repair as T posted and bring back news and info about your Graphic Card.
    Good luck.

  • I've doubled my RAM but still can't save big files in photoshop...

    I have just upgraded my Ram from the shipped 4GB to 8GB but I still can't save big images in photoshop. It seems to have made no difference to the speed of general tasks and saving and I can't save big files in photoshop at all. I already moved massive amounts of files off my computer and onto my external hard drive, so there is much less in my computer now, and twice the RAM but it is making no noticeable difference. When I click memory, under 'about my mac' it shows that the RAM is installed and now has twice the memory. Could this be something to do with photoshop? I'm running CS6.

    Also, I just calculated 220 cm into inches and this is roughly 86.5 inches. Over 7 feet in length.
    WIth an image that large, you may want to consider down sampling to a lower DPI to help with being able to work on and process images of this size much easier and it will be easier for your Print house to process, as well.
    You might want to consider working with these rather large images at 225 DPI instead of 300 if resolution at close distances is still a concern.
    Or what you good try is working with the images at 300 DPI, but then save them/export them as a Jpeg image at the highest image quality setting.
    I do a lot of project where I use a high resolution jpeg image to save on image proceesing overhead.
    The final printed images still come out pretty clear, clean and crisp without having to process those large files at a print house or having to deal with using that full resolution image in a page layout or illustration program.

  • New IMAC but Photoshop running slow

    Hi There
    Could some one help me? I just brought a brand new IMAC 21.5" the base model (NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics) with 4 gb RAM. I downloaded the trial version of adobe cs5 to check if it runs ok but when I am starting things from scratch like just creating things from a blank canvas it runs so slow like trying to paint stuff and render it comes up with a loading screen it just doesn’t do it straight away. But when I am working on photos it seems to run ok. Is there away to solve this issue? Do I need to updated my RAM to make it run smooth?

    The mostly likely reason Photoshop will run slow is insufficient RAM and since you downloaded the demo, you got the extended version which is a huge memory hog. I found it slow on my similarly configured notebook but the regular version runs just fine for me.
    What does seem odd though is that you say it isn't slow on photos, just when you are starting from a blank slate. So I'm thinking - check the pixel size and resolution of your default blank document and compare to a loaded photo. Is the size and resolution of your blank document larger? I'm guessing it might be. That points to RAM again but if you don't need that big a document or that resolution you can reduce it.

  • SPID killed but still running

     hi team,
    sql server one of the process running too log time and i killed that spid but still it is running and my production started few customer complied slowness issues.
    how to fix this issue with out  restart the sql server  services why because production hours are started.
    kindly help ASAP it's very urgent please guys. 

    Perhaps the SPID is in rollback status.  You can check the rollback progress with:
    KILL <spid> WITH STATUSONLY;

  • 24 GB of RAM but still "not enough memory to complete this operation"

    Hello Everyone
    I have an application running on Windows 7, 24 GB RAM, 64 bit computer. I am using Labview 2011, 32 bit and trying to acquire images from a camera. Although I have 24 GB of RAM but while acquiring, the physical memory usage goes upto 8 GB and after that I receive the "not enough memory to complete this operation" message. Any help on how it can be corrected.
    Thanks
    Chauhan

    Hi,
    We are developing an application with Labview 2011, 32 bit, to accuire images at 100fps. Aplication will run in another computer with more than 8GB of RAM (probably 32GB), without having Labview installed, it will only run the exe file. So our questions are:
    we will found also the 8GB limitation?
    If so, the solution could be to buil the application with LV 2011 64bit?
    aditional information will be apreciated.
    Regards,
    Marc.

  • Services of 2nd instance disappearded from SQL Server 2012 Configuration Manager but still running

    We recently configured multiple SQL Server 2012 R1 (two-node) clusters. Some with two instances. However, we discovered later that the Configuration Manager only lists the services of the 1st instance (the default MSSQLSERVER instance). The other named instance
    is still running and can be failed over from one node to the other using Cluster Failover Manager but the services are not showing up in Configuration Manager in any of the two nodes.
    Any thoughts as to why we see this odd behavior and how to fix it? We have done two instances before in SQL Server 2008 R2 but never saw this behavior.
    Thanks,
    Omer

    Please see my answer above about the SQLCM version. We use the highest.
    As I said before that this happens only when we have two instances running in a SQL2012 cluster. We configured 7 SQL 2012 clusters. three of them have two instances but only the services of one instance are displayed in CM. Services of the default instance
    are listed in two of these clusters while services of the named instance are listed in the 3rd one.
    One thing to note about these configurations is that the installer could not bring the services at the end of installation online because it did not have permission to create the computer objects in AD during setup thus we had to follow a known workaround
    that involves having the domain admin fix these permissions and then we were able to add the SQL Agent Service to the cluster and bring the services online after modifying the ConfigurationState key value of each instance in the registry.
    The installer account is setup as a local admin and we asked the domain admin to give it "Read All properties" and "create computer objects" in AD but for some reason it does not seem to have the ability to create these computer objects during installation
    and the objects are to be pre-created and their permissions reset afterward.
    I am giving this information and I am not sure if it has anything to do with the fact that SQLCM is listing the services of one instance and not the other.

  • Battery not availble BUT still running off battery!?!

    So yesterday, my MacBook decided to not show up... what? Randomly, out of the blue! It had previously been working just fine, about 80% health, and then, all of a sudden, it stops recognizing that there's a battery installed. Here's the funny part, though... The battery still has a charge (as shown by LEDs on the bottom), and the MacBook still runs off the battery, despite it saying it doesn't have one! Unsurprisingly, the battery doesn't charge either.
    The computer will only start up if plugged in, but can subsequently be unplugged to run on the remaining battery power.
    It seems the problem here isn't the capacity of the battery, but the communication between the battery and the computer.
    I've tried resetting the SMC and cleaning the contacts of the battery, but neither of those had any effects.
    Do I have any recourse besides trying/buying a new battery?

    I have the same exact problem...totally out of the blue. You definitely don't need a new battery because my problem started couple of days after I purchased a brand new battery.
    I think it might be the battery connector to the logic board. In almost all other cases with this problem, when the battery isn't recognized by the mac, then you have two of the following: it doesn't charge AND the computer doesn't run off the battery alone, even if the battery indicates that it still has juice left.
    Unless instructed otherwise, I'm going to open up the computer and re-connect and clean the battery connector.
    Also, do you have the updated battery software?

  • Battery indicator @ 0%, but still runs

    I've had my macbook for about 2-3 years now. I have noticed the battery performance getting worse with time, but lately it has gone way down! after fully charging, the batter will show only about 20-30minutes of time, within about 3 minutes will drop to 90 percent and continue to degrade rapidly. So yesterday I decided to just let the battery die before plugging it in. Once the indicator read 0%, it continued to run (not plugged in) for about 1 hour while playing music and internet surfing and could've gone longer, but I had to leave the house. So I powered it down, and didn't plug it in. When I got back, it was completely dead, and wouldn't turn on without the adapter plugged in. So I plugged in, turned it on, and it still was reading 0% and it started charging. When I unplugged it, it went into sleep mode and wouldn't wake up until plugged back in. Even after it had been charging for 20 minutes, it still wouldn't run without the adapter.
    Sorry for being so lengthy, but I hope someone out there can help!
