Pages 4.1 is so painfully slow
Pages '09 4.1 is so painfully slow - it takes over my entire computer and everything just drags.... I need this app for my business but I don't know what to do. I am mostly touching up photographs using the Alpha Mask. I absolutely cannot have iPhoto and Pages open at the same time. I end up having to shut everything down in order for it to work. I am in version Mac OSX 10.7.2
2 Gb is not much, 4gb is much more comfortable and best to max it out for your model, RAM is cheap.
Lion is more demanding and slower than Snow Leopard.
It sounds like you have an iMac 20" early 2008. Installation is very easy:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1423#2
Apple reports that you can add up to 4Gb (2x2) of RAM but you can go to 6Gb.
You need 2GB + 4GB Kit DDR2 SODIMM PC2-6400 800Mhz Unbuffered Non ECC
Make sure you tell the supplier it is for the Mac, which is quite picky.
Double check I have identified your Mac correctly:

Hi I've purchased a book on the iBooks store. I've added many notes (about one per pages) and highlighted many piece of text (5 per pages). Now I'm at page 20 and iBooks is painfully slow. It takes ages to get the popup menus when double tapping a word.

one secure website loads painfully slow (7 minutes !). Only this site. How can I streamline firefox to load these pages faster? This started happening only after I switched from McAffee to Norton Security Suite. Other secure sites load just fine.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://www.chase.comIf you close Firefox, then start Firefox in Safe Mode, does the problem still occur? For instructions on starting in Safe Mode, see [[Safe Mode]].

Painfully slow access to admin console (how can I fix it?)
Hi,
I'm using using Sun Java System Web Server Version 7.0U4 B12/02/2008 02:17 running on CentOS (Redhat EL) release 4.4.
The problem is that using the Admin Console (on port 8989) is painfully slow. It takes minutes for each page to load, but they do usually load.
Any ideas on how to fix that?
There are some other things going on that might be related and helpful to know:
I get certificate errors when I access the Admin Console (e..g, IE complains about a mismatched address). I've tried following the directions to install the certificate in IE7 and FF3, but neither has stopped bothering me about the certificate error.
I have the server behind a firewall which allows all outgoing traffic and select incoming ports to the server. The firewall also maps a public IP address to the server's local IP address (e..g, 10.10.10.8).
If I access the Admin Console locally via the LAN address (https://10.10.10.8:8989) it is no longer slow, but I get booted back to the login screen very frequently (e.g, every minute or two of casual browsing through the console), and I still get the certificate error
We haven't given the server a name, but access it by IP address, and the virtual server configuration in the Admin Console is name "localhost.localdomain"
Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! I've tried searching for solutions several times, but haven't succeeded.
Thanks,
TimThanks for the thoughts

sounds more like some network issues. are you running your browser on your centos 4.4 as well ? also, did you try to connect using your IP - some thing like https://<ip>:8989 ?
No, we're not running the browser on centos 4.4. We're runing browsers on laptops, connecting both offsite via public IP address and in the office via both the public IP address and the LAN ip address.
Yes, we're using the ip address as you demonstrated. This machine does not have a domain name attached, so we only connect via ip addresses (mapped public or LAN)

I've tried following the directions to install the certificate in IE7 and FF3, but neither has stopped bothering me about the certificate error.it is not a certificate error. web server 7 admin server uses a self signed certificate . this is necessary step. however, IE reports a warning when it sees a self signed certificate. it wants you to know that it does not understand who sent this certificate. you need to create an exception - saying that you know what you are doing then there won't be any certificate error ..Okay, I'll look for how to do that, but so far I've only found instructions for how to install the certificate in the browsers, and unfortunately, that hasn't made a difference.

sounds like some network misconfiguration - outside the scope of this forum.I cannot rule that out, but other servers/websites seem to work fine with this same setup. Although, only this server is using https

if you want to increase this time out, you could do so by manually editing <install-root>/lib/webapps/admingui/WEB-INF/web.xml and change the value for session-timeout to say 600 (for 10 minutes).. . pl . note that this is not a supported way and you could potentially leave others to use your session if you are careless. but, if you know what you are doing .Thanks I did that. It surprises me that the default timeout appears to be 1 minute. -
Safari painfully slow on new Mac Mini
I know there have been a number of threads on this topic and I have tried all of the tricks listed but Safari is still painfully slow to load web pages. I have tested my internet connection and it is fine. The real interesting thing here is that when I boot up under Windows (using Boot Camp) web pages load blazingly fast under IE, so it seems unlikely that I have a hardware problem. I have also tried Firefox with similar results. I love this new machine but I am pulling my hair out over its browsing performance.
Anyone have a (new) thought?Please try a test account to see how Safari works
there, if you do not have an other user account,
Go to System preferences ->Accounts ->Login Options
Tried this and believe it or not the problem was worse!
se the [+] to create one, you can later use [-] to
delete/remove the account.
Do you use a third party Firewall or one on your
router ?
No on both accounts
Do you use DHCP Lease ?
Yes, I hit the "renew lease" button which had no effect
In the Network ->TCP/IP tab do you have DNS # values
entered in the
DNS Servers box.
No entries in the DNS
Proxies tab, do you have any proxies selected ? if
Yes how does Safari surf with out it ?
No proxies selected
Let us know what your findings are.
Eme: )
I am going to try FireFox again and see if there are any things I can tweak that make it bearable.
Thanks, Richard -
Photoshop CS5.5 extended and XP sp3 PAINFULLY SLOW
I've reinstalled Photoshop to clear up the errors.
Windows XP is fully updated.
Disk is regularly cleaned and defragged
But working in Photoshop is PAINFULLY slow with lots of processes just hanging for several minutes. Mini-bridge will sometimes completely fail.
Running on a 1.73 GHz Intel Pentium(r) processor with 2.00 gb RAM and 40g free working space.
is this box just too old and powerless for PS to function well on it?
thanks for any suggestions.
eAs Noel mentions, the 2GB RAM is not going to be able to handle all that much, and with only 40GB of HDD space left, you have a bottleneck there too. First, PS's Scratch Disks will be limited, and also your Windows Virtual Memory (Page File) will need free, defragmented space to take up the slack, from the lack of RAM. My guess would be that you left the Page File on the default, and that it is being dynamically managed, so it grows and shrinks, as is needed.
When a HDD gets neare 70% capacity, it begins to slow down. The closer to capacity it gets, the slower it gets, and the closer to a failure it gets.
From a BftB (Bang for the Buck) standpoint, more RAM would be a good first step, and an additional HDD would be the next. Both RAM and HDD's are quite cheap nowadays, and in cases like this, their impact can be great. For the HDD, you would probably want to clean up C:\, storing some "stuff" onto your new D:\ (or whichever drive letter is assigned), and then locate your PS Scratch Disks there too.
Good luck,

PAINFULLY slow- can take 4 min to infinity to change tabs!
I have a late 2008 MacBook Pro (original unibody MBP) that's running PAINFULLY slow! I used to be able to run 2 browsers with 15 tabs each, Photoshop, and word all at once. Over the last couple months, I can have as little as a browser with a few tabs and it grinds to a halt. I can simply click on a tab, or on a drop down menu, and I'll get the spinning beach ball for 4 or 5 minutes. Even cmd-opt-esc is unresponsive. Then, minutes later, it'll instantly execute anything I commanded over the last several minutes. Firefox seems to be the worst offender, but it can happen no matter what's running. It can happen immediately after rebooting, too (I used to only have to reboot every few weeks, now it's several times per day)
CPU load is 98% idle after it catches up, but once it catches up and the graph refreshes and I can see it was about 60% user load and 15% system while it was choking on the monumental task of opening the "File" drop-down menu
There are 482 threads and 129 processes.
This is the original unibody Mac with 2.4 ghz core 2 duo. It's been upgraded with 4GB of ram (2.7 used) and a 1TB hard drive. I did those upgrades 2 years ago and they've worked fine until recently. Clicking "get info" on the HD says 333 GB are free, but under "about this mac" it says 121 GB are free and 211 are used for "backup". I'm running OS-X 10.9.2 and it says there are no updates to install.
I've reset system manager
I've reset PRAM
I've fixed disk permissions.
No effect
I know I don't have the speediest machine, but even a mid-80's mac could smoothly handle a drop-down menu, and this is a recent problem. I'm at a loss here, guys. Any idea? My computer is quickly becoming unusable!Great- Thanks! Here's the info...

Painfully slow internet after upgrading to Snow Leopard
hi all, i recently upgraded to Slow leopard.
My internet has soon become painfully slow, taking (literally) minutes to load pages. I have checked my modem & router, they seem to be fine as my iPhone & Vista laptop run perfectly on the same network.
does anybody know what this could be?If you have not done so since upgrading to Snow Leopard, you should run Disk Utility and use +Repair Disk Permissions+.
Have you used Software Update to apply Apple's latest updates after upgrading to Snow Leopard. If there are updates, you should run it a second time to ensure there were no dependent updates.
As a test, you can create a new admin user account in System Preferences Accounts pane.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8235.html
Log out and log in to the new account. Try the things that caused the problems. Is it fast in the new account, or is it the same? If it is fast, then the cause is likely to be in your normal user account. If it is the same, then the cause is likely to be with the overall system (the OS).
You can also try doing a Safe Mode startup
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
This will do some maintenance during startup and also load only Apple's essential system extensions and processes. Any third party software you have installed will not automatically run. Check the performance while in safe mode, and if there is improvement, restart normally to see if the problem comes back or not. -
Wi-fi painfully slow on macbook pro in OSX 10.8.2
I have a Mac Book pro and over the last two days my internet has turned painfully slow on wifi - i havent loaded any new programmes and Speedtest shows no problems, still 37mbps on fiber broadband, my iPhone and PC are fine on the same wireless connection and Ethernet is perfect!!
I have tried resetting Safari and Firefox in preferences, clearing history and cookies, resetting DHCP, even using the setting 8.8.8.8. DNS server, and changing wireless channels, resetting the router, as well as running MacScan. I see people talking about turning off IPv6 but im on OS X 10.8.2 and off is not an option I have Automatic, manual and Link-manual only, i have tried all these to no joy still web pages just take ages to load :-( Any ideas?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.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in 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, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -
Macbook Pro running painfully slow
Hello,
I'm working on a MacBook Pro that's suddenly started to run painfully slow. I've repaired permissions, reset the PRAM, updated everything to Mavericks, and even though it might be running slightly faster, I'm still encountering the pinwheel every time I start anything up or really try to click on anything. I'm pasting my etrecheck info below. Any guidance is most welcome and appreciated!

Macbook Air internet connection painfully slow with ethernet.....
Hi all
I am currently staying in a serviced apartment and have a Macbook Air that I have had to connect to the in-house LAN through the USB port (someone on here was kind enough to suggest this - I'm a bit of beginner at all this!). The connection is painfully slow (it claims to be connected but pages in safari don't load, iTunes won't load etc.), but the ancient IBM pc on Windows XP conencts through the same at a good speed.
I am also in a wifi environment but my Macbook Air doesn't connect to anything - it keeps timing out (even when it can recognise several unsecured networks). Can anyone advise?
Message was edited by: kaythomsonMine is slow too! The Charter tech was here for four hours today, redoing the entire building. Every other Mac and PC here are up to speed. The new Mac Pro Octo has never been up to speed. I really don't have time to put hours into what I suspect will be a dead end. Apple needs to look into this and help us out.

DW CS4 painfully slow in W7 64 bit
Hi
I recently built a new core i7 machine with 6GB ram and a solid state hard drive and installed Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on it. I expected it to be very, very fast! Most apps run fine but Dreamweaver CS4 is unusably slow. Every action which involves interraction with windows is painfully slow. Starting the app it takes 20 secs before a splash screen and then another minute before the panels have fully loaded. Opening files takes up to a minute, I've just updated a Library item but can't get it to apply that item to 5 pages.
Previously I was on Vista Ultimate 32 bit with my 3 year old Intel Core Duo machine and CS4 ran fine at perfectly usable speeds.
I've tried setting the app to run in Win XP SP3 mode, no difference.
I've run Adobe updater, there are no updates to be had.
I suspect a problem with the aero interface, but my drivers are all up to date.
Maybe the problem arises from running a 32 bit app on the 64 bit OS?
I use Kaspersky Internet Security 2010, tried running whilst that was disabled, same problem.
I'm at my wits' end. I do a lot of work on DW, but at the moment it is unusable.
Any help gratefully received......
TPHaving the same issues as well - Win7 Ultimate 64-bit, KIS2010 (9.0.0.736), Dreamweaver CS4. Dreamweaver now takes 1-2 minutes before it launches, once I'm finally able to open a file I'm constantly presented with a (Not responding) notice. I'm not unable to even create simple CSS rules - I create and id, click create new rule button, compound selector dialog window opens, I click Ok - then nothing.
Some form of tech support would be helpful on this issue. I've gone through the Russian forums for Kaspersky but I'm not seeing much beyond continually disabling portions of KIS2010 until magically something might work, or might not. I'm fully aware that Adobe will place the blame on Kaspersky, just as Kaspersky will place the blame on Adobe - that being said, those of us having issues, are we all using KIS2010 and experiencing delays? Or, and this is going to be painfully optimistic of me, has anyone gotten the above combination to actually work? -
Production Cube painfully slow when resolving partitioned data
Hi,
We have a few 10g cubes in our production environment on Unix servers. For the most part the users are very satisfied with the response time. Most are of a similar design Global Composites, compressed around 9 dimensions.
Recently we introduced a new cube and took advantage of the Parallell processing
feature and partitioned it on the month level of time . It has 9 dimensions (see portion of load log below for specifics). All dimensions are sparse , global composites, Compression, 15 measures .. Most dimensions are aggregated fully or 1 below the top with the exception product aggregated only to the leaf level.
The load works fine 9million data rows loaded and aggregated in 2 hours. The problem we are having is in the response time to a query. It's fine when only 1 month is selected. When you select qtr and years the query becomes painfully slow. When selecting 1 measure for 1 month it takes about 15 seconds to return. When selecting the same measure for the year or qtr it takes about 6 minutes to return. The same is true when I run a report from the Olap worksheet using olap DML so i know that it has nothing to do with the front end or network.
Any ideas on what could be causing the bottleneck in summing the partitions or on how to diagnose the problem. Version is 10.2.0.2
There are only 7 months in the cube and it's 25gb.
thx

4 2295138076Watrost makes some very valid points and you should review the suggestions he has made.
In addition I would like to add the following. When deciding on how and when to use partitioning and parallel processing I would suggest considering these points:
1) The partition dimension - most people partition on time, probably because all the examples I have seen in this area show this as if it were the "normal" method. Using time is a good idea if you want to perform some form of rolling time window and need to quickly and easily drop data for a specific time period. However, partitioning does impact on query performance and you need to balance the needs of "ease of maintenance" against query performance for your users. Once you have selected a level to use as the partition key you will notice on the Summary tab that levels above this key are in fact grayed out and cannot be selected. As Watrost points out, the partition key in effect becomes your top level of pre-aggregation. All other levels are summed at query time. This is normally ok, but for a 9 dimensional model it means you have no summary levels computed across any of your other 8 dimensions for levels above the partition key. This will have a serious impact on your query performance.
2) Parallel processing - many people seem to implement partitioning in the expectation that their cubes will aggregate more quickly. In most cases this can be true but there are many factors to consider. To be really effective you need to have multiple CPUs, and you should set the number of parallel jobs to a maximum of No of CPUs-1. For some reason I have seen many DBAs just randomly pick a number for this value that greatly exceeds the number of CPUs and then wonder why their cube build takes such a long time. I would start by using the No of CPUs/2 and scaling up to No of CPUs-1 to determine the sweet spot for your system based on resources. Don't forget it is not just CPUs that are important in this situation you also need fast disks as I/O contention can occur very easily.
3) Partial vs Full aggregation - If you upgrade to the latest 10.2.0.3 patcheset and apply the OLAP A Patch as well (available from Metalink) which will allow you to take advantage of partial aggregation features. When loading data into a cube you should only aggregate data for incoming values rather than re-aggregating data for the whole cube. Although AWM does provide a radio button to control this on the second page of the maintenance wizard it is only with the above patchsets that this actually works.
4) Sortarea size : check your sortarea size. Typically, this is set very small in most instances and OLAP operations are very sort intensive. Therefore, increasing this to 1M or higher can have a significant impact on load performance.
5) Monitoring Builds - There are some free performance views you can download from OTN that will help you monitor what is happening during a build. See the link for SQL Scripts for OLAP DBAs and the associated readme at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/olap/OLAP_DBA_scripts.ZIP
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/olap/OLAP_DBA_README.htm
I would look at the views AW_WAIT_EVENTS, OLAP_PGA_USE and AW_LONGOPS as well as generally monitoring your instance via OEM using the ADDM reports that can be generated. These will help you discover performance bottlenecks in your system
Now for the dilemma - parallel processing vs partitioning. Most people would agree that partial aggregation is a good idea as there is no need to re-aggregate a complete cube when there have been no changes to the dimensions/hierarchies and you are loading data for just the current month. But if you partition by month you will never get parallel processing because you will only be aggregating data within a single partition and for parallel processing to occur aggregation must occur across multiple partitions. What it does mean is that the time take for each load and partial aggregation should be consistent which makes it easy to plan.
If this is proving to be a significant problem then it is possible to use partitioning and generate a fully solved cube. In 11g this will be resolved using a new aggregation feature. For 10gR2 it is possible to create this type of solution. In fact I have just re-designed a customers physical data model to reduce the query time for one of their main user reports from 14 minutes to 10 seconds. The problem was the query accessed the data within the partition that was not aggregated.
It is quite a simple process and does not change your current logical data model. Quite simply you create a surrogate partition dimension with only one two levels - All and "Level 1". Partition on "Level 1". If you are using time, which most people do, level 1 contains all the values for all months, all quarters and all years. Next create a source table that contains using GROUPING SETS to compute totals for months, quarters and years only for base levels across all your other dimensions. This will created an embedded total fact table for your surrogate time dimension.
In the mapping editor, map the surrogate time dimension column in the fact table to your surrogate dimension "Level 1". In the Rules tab within AWM set the aggregation for this surrogate dimension to "Do not Aggregate". Load your data.
In your existing cube you replace your existing stored measures with calculated measures, using the same name, that point to the new physical cubes via a QDR from the standard time dimension to the surrogate time dimension.
Hope this helps.

10.4 web server painfully slow
We upgraded from Server 10.3 to 10.4.11 (Apache/1.3.33 (Darwin) PHP/4.4.7).
We have a couple of wikis installed (DokuWiki running on PHP, file based - no backend).
While 10.3 did a nice job serving them, 10.4 is painfully slow. What used to load in a few seconds now can take anywhere from 30 - 60 seconds to load.
There appear to be now error.log or access.log entries indicating anythings wrong.
Any idea what I can do to get the speed back?
