How is the graphics performance with the HD4000 GPU forced on

How folks....
I am wondering if anyone here is running there rMBP with the HD4000 GPU forced on (using gfxCardStatus.)
I always run with the integrated GPU on my Late 2011 MBP 15 (the GPU performance is adequate for me this way with the HD3000.)
Since there are a lot more pixels to drive on the rMBP, I wonder if the scrolling, screen switching, going to mission control and back, etc. suffers when using the integrated GPU only. I wonder if anyone is willing to give this a try? This might also fix the graphics corruptions problem you guys have been seeing when coming back from sleep with the rMBP.

I've got a 1.8 with upgraded RAM and have had no problems outputting to my 720p display. Some previous posts have stated that doing 1080i with a compressed feed is the only thing that is too much and you need the new model for that.

How is Lion's performance with the baseline 13" MBA (Late 2010) 2GB RAM? I know it works fine with the baseline 11" 2GB model, but because that's a smaller machine, perhaps the 2GB limit is not so detrimental to performance. MBA 13" 1.86, 2GB/2010

How does the baseline 13" mba (late 2010, 1.86 ghz, 2GB RAM/128GB) work with OSX LIon? I know the baseline 11" is fine, but does the larger form factor of the MBA 13" require more RAM to be speedy under Lion? I wouldn't think so, but please advise. Please answer this question ONLY with refrence to the specs listed (13" MBA (late 2010, 1.86 ghz, 2GB RAM, 128gb). Thanks much!

Overy time, every PC/Mac gets unavoidably bloated with junk like unnecessary files/downloads/apps or left-over files of video-streams/uninstalled apps/caches/... which slow down the overall system. That's why PC/Mac should be formatted (=deleting everything even including the operating system) once in a while to reinstall the operating system (here: Lion) from scratch -hence "clean install". To format a Mac is pretty easy, but all of your files (e.g. images, documents,...) should be saved on external harddrives/CDs/DVDs/Flash-drives... because they are going to be deleted during the formatting.
I'm NOT going to describe you how to format, because it might not be necessary for you.
But what you NEED to do anyway is (if you want Lion):
(( 0. Eventually, but not necessarily: Make a TimeMachine-BackUp to be able to return to Snow Leopard))
1. Download Lion, BUT DON'T install it (cancel the install-process).
2. Follow the instructions on this site:
http://lifehacker.com/5823096/how-to-burn-your-own-lion-install-dvd-or-flash-dri ve
This will give you a legal copy of Lion on a DVD or Flash-Drive, which btw allows you to install it on all of your mac at home. Why do you need copy of Lion? If you encounter problems with lion after a "normal install"(=NOT formatting and NOT clean installing the operating system), you still have the option to make a clean install. A clean install can't be done without the copy of Lion on a DVD or Flash-Drive.

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,
Daniel

Did you try the 11.5 RST beta? Load up DPClat and see if DPC conditions are favorable.
What are you using to check graphics performance?

How do I improve performance with exchange

My corporate email is on an exchange 2010 server. Mail.app works with the server but there are a number of performance problems when sending and receiving, which are also well documented in other discussion threads. I have tried every suggested configuration but performance remains extremely poor, especially when compared to my personal IMAP accounts, and the performance I was used to in Outlook 2011 under Mountain Lion.
Looking through my logs I see multiple entries of:
03/12/2013 14:37:55.007 Mail[5018]: CFNetwork SSLHandshake failed (-9800)

I have installed and trusted the certificates for our exchange server and can browse to the owa front end with no certificate warnings.
Interestingly, I don't have the same problem with reminders or calendar which are connected to the same exchange server.
Does anyone have any ideas how to overcome this problem?

Some additional information...
I fired up wireshark to take a look. For all communications to our Exchange server (Mail, Calendar, Notes...) the SSL negotation includes a downgrade to TLS v1
I notice that Mavericks CoreFoundation Networks defaults to TLS v1.2 and that BEAST mitigation leads to some problems example: https://trac.adium.im/ticket/16550
Exchange Server 2010 is TLS v1.0 only http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2709167
I'll do some more Wireshark investigation.

How can the FFC possibly force Verizon to provide the service I've paid for?

So it seems that Verizon is quite fond of giving their customers alot of ******** and runaround in order to avoid providing the service they claim to be selling. After spending a TORTUROUS full hour of my time speaking with a customer service rep AND paying an ADDITIONAL $30 to continue having phone service I STILL don't have what I paid for, and customer service will not accept a third call from me today. SO, I have gone ahead and filed a complaint with the FCC. I didn't feel the need to make this a community discussion, but evidently this is the only way to inform this god awful swindling sleaze-ball company of my discontent.
Here are the details of the complaint I have presently filed: "I purchased an upgraded smart phone and added a $70 card for unlimited talk, text and 4 gigs of data usage. I was NOT moved on to the $70 plan printed on the card I purchased and was additionally billed for every call, text and data transfer until my previous $20 overage balance was reduced to nothing. When I spoke with their customer service, I was told that they would fix the error if I paid an additional $20. I purchased ANOTHER $30 card(the location I was at only had $15 and $30 increments) and added it to the phone. I called BACK customer service to make sure I would no longer be charged for the unlimited service I paid for. As it sits at this moment, my account says I have unlimited talk and text, BUT my data is next to empty AND the overage balance is UNDER $1. In summary: that's $70 for the plan I wasn't given, $20 for the charges I wasn't supposed to incur, and $30 for the extra money they insisted I pay to continue service."
Does anybody SEE this?!?! I PAID $70 for unlimited talk, text and 4 gigs of data, period. That should be the end of it, I should HAVE that right now and not be fighting to GET it... What I have RECEIVED is billing through $20 that should not have been touched. I then had to ADD $30 MORE and I STILL don't have data reflected on myverizon AND the dollar balance on my account is under $1. So instead of paying $70 for unlimited talk, text and 4 gigs, I have paid $120 for unlimited talk, text and ZERO data AND an almost empty overage balance.

Again: I don't start out this way. I don't TALK this way, but when I've been patient and polite on the phone for a FULL hour, and they STILL don't fix my problem, and I call back and get a robot voice telling me to go online... I'm going to vent. You see?
When I say it costs next to nothing, what I mean is that price fixing is occurring at the highest levels by financiers who have a monopoly on literally everything for sale. There's no REAL WORLD value behind the costs. That wasn't the focus of this complaint because I've fully accepted that the vast majority of society is far too fluoridated and indoctrinated to have critical thought processes. I'm sorry for mentioning it because the problem is bigger than the imaginations of anyone who will read this.
What I want to focus on is the end of the line robbery occurring in my immediate, direct experience in this moment where my account should rightfully have 4 gigs of information and $50 credit waiting for me because I paid for it. I live in the sticks. I LIKE it out here away from the metropolitan taxpayer zoo. I HAD a (removed) phone from (removed) when I moved out here and frequently wouldn't GET incoming calls. When they actually DELIVER the service I normally pay for, I'm not dissatisfied. I achieve communication. It's pretty cool... but since I've gone ahead and upgraded to a smart phone they've withheld the service I've paid for and charged me $50 for NOTHING at all. That's THEFT. Flat out.
How I handle it??? You mean by being polite on the phone while they explained to me that I would have to pay an additional $20 AFTER the $20 they falsely charged me in order to have the plan I already paid for? You mean when I went ahead and withheld every thought in my head to call them out on how messed up that is, and actually went into that store, and bought that card, and added it to my phone, and waited politely AGAIN? You mean when I discovered that not only was the issue STILL not resolved, but the balance on my account shows less than a dollar, and I tried to call back yet again only to be told to go online where NOTHING on this site puts you in contact with anyone who will actually DO anything to resolve ANY sort of issue?
I believe I have every right to be as rude as I like at this point. This is NOT how a legitimate business operates. I shouldn't even be replying to you. I shouldn't be ****** off and missing money/data as I'm here holding the receipts. I shouldn't be forced to make this whole day about hunting down a legitimate person within the company in order to collect what I paid for. There's a product on the shelf with an advertised service. I paid the money... I should have the service... and I shouldn't be charged extra money in order to fund their inability to deliver it.

RMBP13 late 2013 desktop graphics performance with 30" and 24" external displays

Looking into getting a rMBP13 late 2013. The only thing currently holding me back is if the Intel 5100 can drive the 30" (2560x1600) and 24" (1920x1200) in addition to the notebook's 2560x1600 display without lag with desktop productivity apps, playing full screen video on each display, etc...
If you have experience with this type of setup, or 2x 27" cinema displays 2560x1440 iirc) I would appreciate it if you could share your experience. Also, if you have this type of setup with boot camp, what is the performance like under Windows 8.1 on the bare metal.
Many thanks,
M.

Anyone?

How can we increase performance with JAI.

Hi All,
I am using JAI for breaking multi page TIFF image into different files, which each file contains a single page TIFF.
In that process we are using ImageDecoder, it is taking too much.,
which causes performance botteneck.
Can any one suggest me the best practise which is used to break multi page TIFF file into single page TIFF files.
Thanks

How does OS Lion perform with microsoft office 2011

Office 2011 no problems. CS5 Photoshop no problems. I don't use InDesign.

When will there be an update for OpenCL support on the HD4000?

Quite frustrating that even the the hardware supports OpenCL, it is not supported by the OS. When can we expect an update to fix this?

It's really strange that the HD4000 still lacks OpenCL on the Mac, because Apple is putting this GPU into more and more models. The new 13inch retina MBP uses the HD4000 GPU _only_
Given the "Pro" in the MBP name, I'd expect its GPU to support OpenCL.
They also moved the Mac Mini to HD4000-only, leaving this model without an OpenCL-compatible GPU.
It's really, really strange. Isn't Apple interested in OpenCL anymore?

Query Performance Is "Aggregates" the way out for me?
/people/vikash.agrawal/blog/2006/04/17/query-performance-150-is-aggregates-the-way-out-for-me
° the OLAP cache is architected to store query result sets and to give all users access to those result sets.
If a user executes a query, the result set for that querys request can be stored in the OLAP cache; if that same query (or a derivative) is then executed by another user, the subsequent query request can be filled by accessing the result set already stored in the OLAP cache.
In this way, a query request filled from the OLAP cache is significantly faster than queries that receive their result set from database access
° The indexes that are created in the fact table for each dimension allow you to easily find and select the data
see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/80/1a6473e07211d2acb80000e829fbfe/content.htm
° when you load data into the InfoCube, each request has its own request ID, which is included in the fact table in the packet dimension.
This (besides giving the possibility to manage/delete single request) increases the volume of data, and reduces performance in reporting, as the system has to aggregate with the request ID every time you execute a query. Using compressing, you can eliminate these disadvantages, and bring data from different requests together into one single request (request ID 0).
This function is critical, as the compressed data can no longer be deleted from the InfoCube using its request IDs and, logically, you must be absolutely certain that the data loaded into the InfoCube is correct.
see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ca/aa6437e7a4080ee10000009b38f842/content.htm
° by using partitioning you can split up the whole dataset for an InfoCube into several, smaller, physically independent and redundancy-free units. Thanks to this separation, performance is increased when reporting, or also when deleting data from the InfoCube.
see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/33/dc2038aa3bcd23e10000009b38f8cf/content.htm

How does the mac mini perform with cs5

Just curious
How does the Intel HD Graphics 4000 in the new mac mini perform with cs5 photoshop cs6 photoshop?
thanks
Ted

Jeff, I appreciate your comment, so you haven't had any problem with using the painttools in CS 6 photoshop and the 3d type etc, in other words all the features that CS6 photoshop has.
I was thinking about buying the mac mini but was concerned how it works with CS 5 (which I have) I will have to take another look at the MiniMac server with the 3000 card. I do a lot of Digital Painting primarily Painter 12.2 but and would like to use the Painter brushes in CS 5 ( have not upgraded to CS 6.) My Imac is 6 years old and really is not fast enough.
Thanks for replying
Ted

How about the Graphic Performance?

Hello all!
May someone can help me to get that clarified ...
I have a MacMini with Thunderbolt connection. Latley I started to use RC Flight simulator which challenges the video card of my MacMini pretty much.
How about a Thunderbolt Display? Will TB just "substitute" my current HDMI-Connection or will some computing power be "outsourced" to the display? In other words: will the graphic performance of my MacMini improve using a TB-Display or does it stay the same because the build in video card is still "in charge"?
Thx for your help!

No question the Thunderbolt is without doubt a fantastic display, however to answer your question I'm personally experiencing a performance drop (see my very recent thread in this forum).
One of my reasons for finally getting the Thunderbolt Display was to enjoy some proper gaming on a big screen for 3D games both within OS X and Bootcamp. Even when I match my MacBook Pro 17" unibody's (early 2011) top resolution with the Thunderbolt Display for a like for like comparison, I get a performance drop which I was hoping would never happen. I was hoping that with the MacBook Pro in closed 'clamshell' and thus the MacBook Pro switching it's own display 'off' and presumably diverting all of the GPU's performance power straight to the Thunderbolt Display via it's direct fast Thunderbolt bus; that it would at the very very least match the performance when using the MacBook Pro's own display, but currently I have to choose the 'very low' graphics setting on some games to maintain a decent frame-rate for smooth game play.
Mybe this is not a permanent Thunderbolt Display problem/fault and might be resolved at some point by means of a software, display driver or display/thunderbolt/GPU firmware update. If that be the case then I'll know there's hope at the end of the tunnel. Understandably I wasn't expecting my MacBook Pro 17" early 2011 to perform miracles with it's graphics performance anyhow, but it's 1GB Graphics adapter isn't all that bad either and is a half decent card that can give acceptable results. But If you where to match the resolution of the Thunderbolt Display to that of the MacBook Pro for comparison for yourself and then run a 3D game like say 'Dirt 2', you will soon realise there are slight performance issues; unless of course I'm doing something wrong.
Here's hoping this may only be a temporary drawback for the Thunderbolt Display with 3D applications/gaming.

Gnome-shell with nouveau - how is the performance

I have an old 8400GS and find gnome-shell's performance under nouveau pretty bad. Is it my card or the driver? If you have a more powerful card, how is the performance? I'm no gamer but is there a more powerful (none fan cooled) nvidia card that's better?

Looks okay.... guess my 8400GS is just underpowered for this driver. I ordered the 450 GTS so we'll see

2 External Monitors with the T430s with Intel HD4000

I have read several multiple monitor threads but could not get a clear solution to this.
Model: I have a T430s with Intel HD4000 graphics.
Desired set up: 2 External Monitors + Lenovo LCD
Problem: It seems that I can only drive one external monitor. I'd like to drive two external monitors, as I did previously with my T420.
What I've tried: I have a dock and have tried VGA + DVI for the external monitors, as well as DVI + DVI. Neither setup has worked. It always greys out the third monitor in the Windows Display options.
Any thoughts on how to drive two external monitors with the T430s? Clarity is appreciated. Thank you!

If I'm reading the link you provided correctly, can I correctly assume that I CAN connect two external displays with just the W520 Laptop and NO docking station?
I tested this today. You can connect two external displays (1 VGA, 1 DisplayPort) without a docking station. The result is 3 independent displays - the ThinkPad LCD, the VGA monitor, and the DisplayPort monitor.

How is the graphics performance with the HD4000 GPU forced on
