Apps getting very slow - where to get some details? [SOLVED]

All my apps (Gui as well as console) are so sloooow to react since I upgraded to kernel 2.6.14.3-2 Sunday morning & got that message at boot :
EXT2-fs warning (device sda6): ext2_fill_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2
::: checking filesystem
/dev/sda6 clean
/dev/sda9 is mounted. e2fsck: cannot continue, aborting
Type root password for (...)
Here is the detailed post about that issue.
Also upgraded to latest nVidia 1.0.8174-1 (that was yesterday evening)
Pliz where/how should i look for having some more infos about that Gui issue :?:
All I found in dmesg, /var/log is something related to gconf :

EDIT : it is solved
Main symptom was super slow HDD writes (see 3rd post)
Now how could one have found what problem it was the faster way than I blindly did ?

box components are brand new (3 weeks), still it might be HDD (or ALi controller Sata support in kernel as it started with last upgrade) related :
HDD makes a *lot* more writing-noise (read: not noise, but as if it took ages to write something on it) than until 2 days ago. GTK apps stay blank/unreactive for a few seconds before returning back to being usable
There"s no such sign on Mandriva 2006 x86_64 or Windows, but thoses OS I don't use them a lot, & on other partitions.
Bonnie++ output on sda12 partition (JFS beeing missrecognized on boot from time to time since last upgrade time ; have to launch jfs_fsck then it mounts readilly :?:) :

Itunes app download very slow

itunes app download very slow&iphone

Close and relaunch iTunes.
Reboot the computer.
Power cycle the router/cable modem.

Mac App store very slow

Mac App store takes ages to load up, then open or search for any apps. It works fine but just very slow. It wasn't always like this, just recently.

From your Applications folder move the App Store app to the Trash. Empty the Trash.
Now open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left then open the Library folder then the Caches folder.
Move the com.apple.appstore and the com.apple.storeagent files from the Caches folder to the Trash
From the same Library folder open the Preferences folder.
Move these files Preferences folder to the Trash: com.apple.appstore.plist and com.apple.storeagent.plist
Same Library folder open the Cookies folder. Move the com.apple.appstore.plist file from the Cookies folder to the Trash.
I know you already installed the v10.6.7 combo but you need to do this one more time. If you still have the original .dmg file, move that to the Trash.
Reinstall new: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1361
If that didn't reinstall the App Store app, follow these instructions.
Get Pacifist
Pacifist is a utility that can extract files from a .dmg folder.
Open Pacifist after you install it. In the Pacifist window click Open Package.
Navigate to the MacOS XUpdCombo10.6.7.pkg. Select that then click Open.
In the next window click the gray disclosure triangle where you see: Contents of manual
Then click the triangle next to: Contents of MacOSXUpdCombo10.6.7.pkd
Then click Applications, then right or control click: App Store.app
Then click: Install to Default Location. That will reinstall the MAS to your Applications folder.

Very Slow Network access for some computers

This has me baffled, I'll try my best to explain.
We have an xserve g5 conected to xserve RAID, the xserve has gigabit ethernet.
All Client computers are also on Gigabit ethernet.
Users are all on network homes on the Server.
Most users are getting descent speeds, transfering a file from the RAID to their (network) desktop takes around 40 seconds for a 1Gb file.
However two users noticed transfer was much slower, 20 mins for the same file.
I've ruled out cable problems and hardware problems because if I transfer to the local computer harddrive the speed is up to around 1 minute.
But I've also ruled out a problem with the user account, because if the same user logs onto another mac the speeds are around 40 seconds.
I tried logging other users into the problem macs and all users drop to 20 minutes.
The only thing I can thing it could be is some problem with how those computers are binding with the server, I tried unbinding and resetting up directory access but that made no difference.
What else can I try other than re-installing?

I went ahead and did a fresh install, but this did NOT fix the problem.. I really can't think what else I can do!
Noticed in Network utility there are a lot of received errors when copying a file.
I replaced all the cables but again I don't think its can be a hardware problem because transfer rates are fine from local harddrive to server, but very slow between 2 network disks (unusually slow, considering all other computers are fast transfering the same file to the same place) HELP!

CS4 apps are VERY slow to open Windows file browser with File Open or File Save As commands

We are running CS4 on Windows 7 with all available updates installed. Photoshop and the other CS4 applications are VERY slow to open a Windows file browsing window to select files when File Open or File Save As menu options are run -- it can take as long as a minute or two for the window to open. Once the window opens and a file is selected, then opening or saving the file is very quick. The location of the default directory, whether it is on a local drive or a network drive, makes no difference. Any suggestions as to what the problem might be?

Raphman02
The link that I posted earlier is off. Read this one
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2501584. I discovered in my network that the MS Office File Validation Patch made excel crawl when opening over the network though nothing else changed. At the time I was opening Excel on Office 2003.
You can manually turn this off by editing the registry and tunring it off. Going forward I skipped the patch to keep my sanity. Not sure if this is the same as your issue, but the support article will go into detail how to either have Fix it
clear the issue or change the proper registry keys.
Hope this helps

Adobe AIR Apps + Safari = Very slow

Hi everybody,
I'm experiencing a strange behaviour of my Adobe AIR Apps on iPad. I've tested several Apps now (one GPU-Heavy Game, one CPU-Blitting App, one pretty standard Puzzle) and all of them do have the same issue - as soon as Safari is running in the background it sometimes (not always.. and most likely on iPad1) slows my App down to 1fps. Until I close Safari again. I haven't ever seen any other App doing so, thus I believe it's an Adobe AIR bug. Maybe only on iPad though.
Does anyone know why this happens or if I can get around of that? Besides my Apps run superfast.
What I've tested so far is:
- My memory usage is ~4mb. Doesn't seem to bother him if it's more or not
- My GPU-Cache is held quite low (but even with empty GPU Cache this issue appears)
- I'm using an Enter-Frame in all my apps which simulates the rendertick. Maybe this may be the fault?!
Many thanks in advance,
Marvin.

Furthermore:
- if the iPad was restarted you can have opened any iOS system-app without slowing down the Adobe AIR app
- nevertheless after some hours this bug occurs again.
Our game is in stores now: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ifunnel-frenzy-hd/id457822239?mt=8 and many people send us bugreports because of it. As soon as I'm telling them to close iOS system-apps things work superfine again.
You can download and test this bug for yourself - I think this might be pretty self-explaining then.
I'm a bit struggling how to solve this.. honestly.

Apps are very slow

I have an iphone 3gS which I have just updated to the latest ios. I have also got icloud. Since I've updated its been really slow. When I open an app I get a blank screen for a little while and then the app starts. Any ideas?

The 3GS, by default, is slow. It is usable, but slow. You will have to wait for apps to load. I've owned the 3GS, 4, and 4S. The 3GS and 4 are by far quite slow compared to the 4S.
But turn off iCloud. I did that, and it saved battery, and some performance got better. Use the free dropbox app. iCloud is a resource hog, and it works well with iPad 2 or iPhone 4S in my opinion.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
tpulak

Safari and other apps are very slow

I am frustrated because I have goodled and tried everything. Safari and other apps on my MacBook Pro are loading very slowly. This was not the case about a month ago. I purchased this Macbook in October 2014 and it should not be as slow as it is. What can I do? I have changed a few settings and made some adjustments and the performance is still the same. Help.

When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
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 and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.

Phone App - Responds very slow or delay to touch/scroll

My IPhone4 ver4.1 -
There is a delay when I touch a key or try to scroll in the phone app it. Has anyone experience this? Any fis to this issue?

Hmmm... not good.
You are describing the classic "Battery Drain" problem and you will find a lot of post here about that issue.
On my current phone iP4 #2, I ran into a little problem while updating to iOS4.1 and ended up doing a "Setup/Configure as new".
I don't know if I had the problem on phone #2 or would have if I had not done the "Setup as new" but in any case my phone does not have the battery drain or heat problem.
Check some of the other post on this. The general gist of the problem is that during the iOS-4.1 update a piece of code (modem firmware) gets hung in a loop using a tremendous amount of CPU resources and of course BATTERY.
Some claim they have done the setup as new two or three time to clear this problem. And Oh by the way don't due a restore afterward and make sure you do a sync prior to doing the setup as new then after the setup as new just re-sync and all your apps and music... etc. should be restored to your phone.

New York Times app is very slow and halting

Every morning, when I open up the New York Times app (on my 4h generation iPod Touch), it takes forever to open and forever to update. Within each individual screen, it takes a long time to switch articles and often freezes for 5-10 seconds at a time, while it's downloading or updating. Anyone else have this problem or any advice? I suppose I could just delete it and reinstall it for starters.
Thanks.

Mark,
Try a hard reset of the iPod. To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Your iPod may be short on memory and rebooting your iPod may free some of it up.

iPad running slow? How to speed up a slow iPad
http://appletoolbox.com/2012/07/ipad-running-slow-how-to-speed-up-a-slow-ipad/
If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here’s How to Speed It Up
http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/23/ios-7-slow-speed-it-up/
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
 Cheers, Tom
