Performance difference between 1gb and 2gb RAM for Leopard

Hi ..
I'm thinking of upgrading to a 2gb Ram.
Would like to know if other users saw a major increase in speed & performance in Leopard.
Thanks.

No, I didn't see any appreciable speed increase in Leopard, but the increased RAM should help.

  • Difference between 1GB and 2GB ram

    how much difference will i see if i had 2gb of ram rather than 1 gb of ram in a macbook
    and how much would it cost to upgrade at a later stage

    If you have the newest model with the better logic board that will take 4GB of RAM, it won't be nearly as important at this moment as it is to upgrade the older model, which is limited to a maximum of 2GB. Now is the time to upgrade the older models - it will be dirt cheap as long as you don't buy the RAM modules from Apple. You will get more out of your machine, you will save wear and tear on your hard drive, and your machine will be worth more when you go to sell it.
    It might pay off when the machine is upgraded to the next version of OSX. Successive operating systems seem to be able to use (and require) larger and larger amounts of system memory to function better.
    However - I've got 4GB on my MacBook right now, and I've always seen at least 2GB free. However - it was cheap and I do think it'll eventually pay off.
    I'm also eagerly awaiting the 200GB Hitachi 7K200 7200 RPM drive I just ordered. I don't know if I really needed that much capacity, but maybe it'll come in handy if I want to boot Windows.

  • Graph axes assignment: performance difference between ATTR_ACTIVE_XAXIS and ATTR_PLOT_XAXIS

    Hi,
    I am using a xy graph with both x axes and both y axes. There are two possibilities when adding a new plot:
    1) PlotXY and SetPlotAttribute ( , , , ATTR_PLOT_XAXIS, );
    2) SetCtrlAttribute ( , , ATTR_ACTIVE_XAXIS, ) and PlotXY
    I tend to prefer the second method because I would assume it to be slightly faster, but what do the experts say?
    Thanks!  
    Solved!

    Hi Wolfgang,
    thank you for your interesting question.
    First of all I want to say, that generally spoken, using the command "SetCtrlAttribute"is the best way to handle with your elements. I would suggest using this command when ever it is possible.
    Now, to your question regarding the performance difference between "SetCtrlAttribute" and "SetPlotAttribute".
    I think the performance difference occures, because in the background of the "SetPlotAttribute" command, another function called "ProcessDrawEvents" is executed. This event refreshes your plot again and again in the function whereas in the "SetCtrlAttribute" the refreshing is done once after the function has been finished. This might be a possible reason.
    For example you have a progress bar which shows you the progress of installing a driver:
    "SetPlotAttribute" would show you the progress bar moving step by step until installing the driver is done.
    "SetCtrlAttribute" would just show you an empty bar at the start and a full progress bar when the installing process is done.
    I think it is like that but I can't tell you 100%, therefore I would need to ask our developers.
    If you want, i can forward the question to them, this might need some times. Also, then I would need to know which version of CVI you are using.
    Please let me now if you want me to forward your question.
    Have a nice day,

  • Performance difference between page and scroll

    Hi experts:
    What is the technical difference between paging and scrolling, especially as pertains to database access and performance?  The scenario would be a table result in a view where 200 results exist for a query.  A scrollable table would show all results, while the paging table would show 10/20 per page.  Is the database selection the same for both approaches?  Or is the paging approach going to make more trips?  If there are trips - how does the UI know how many pages should be presented?  Is one or the other a better approach for data which is not existing in CRM system?
    regards,
    bill.

    If you look at the servlet translated from a JSP, you'll see these lines:
    Object page = this;
    pageContext = _jspxFactory.getPageContext(this, request, response,
                null, true, 8192, true);
    _jspx_page_context = pageContext;
    application = pageContext.getServletContext();So page is simply an alias for this.
    And PageContext is analogous to ServletContext but please notice, it's not the same or a replacement; application is the implicit reference to ServletContext and not pageContext. There is no equivalent of pageContext in servlets.
    Please note that the page scope doesn't refer to the page object but to the pageContext. Therefore, what Manivel said above
    page is used as a scope with in one jspisn't correct.

  • Is there any performance difference between unique and no unique index

    Hi,
    We are working with both databases Oracle and MS-SQL and we have an open channel to MS-SQL server core team.
    We got the word from them that there is a difference between unique and no unique index from the optimizer perspective, i.e. the optimizer knowing that the index is unique may choose a more suitable plan for running a specific query, we're still trying to find a specific example.
    Anyway, since we do not have an open channel to Oracle core, I thought maybe one of you guys knows something about Oracle optimizer behavior on this issue.
    I am interested verified answers from certified sources and not suggestions or thoughts.
    Thanks in advanced,

  • Difference between -TlsDomain and -DomainSecureEnabled Parameters for Sendconnectors

    Hi Exchange-Community,
    I just came across with the different possibilties for securing mail flow between Partner companies.
    I'm a little confused by the difference between -TlsDomain and -DomainSecureEnabled. All Whitepapers and tutorials for secured Partner communication refer only to the -DomainSecureEnabled Parameter. (With conjunction of Set-transportConfig -tlssenddomainsecurelist
    etc. of course)
    Can anybody enlight me when I have to use the -TlsDomain Parameter, and what it finally does? 
    Thanks for any response
    Chris

    Hi Chris,
    The DomainSecureEnabled parameter is part of the process to enable mutual Transport Layer Security (TLS) authentication for the domains serviced by this Send connector. Mutual TLS authentication functions correctly only when the following conditions
    are met:
    The value of the DomainSecureEnabled parameter must be $true.
    The value of the DNSRoutingEnabled parameter must be $true.
    The value of the IgnoreStartTLS parameter must be $false.
    The TlsDomain parameter specifies the domain name that the Send connector uses to verify the FQDN of the target certificate when establishing a TLS secured connection.
    This parameter is used only if the TlsAuthLevel parameter is set to DomainValidation.
    A value for this parameter is required if:
    The TLSAuthLevel parameter is set to DomainValidation.
    The DNSRoutingEnabled parameter is set to $false (smart host Send connector).
    For more information about them, please refer to Parameters in Set-SendConnector:

  • Difference between 1333 and 1600 mhz for 16Go RAM

    Is there a big difference between a 1333 and 1600 mhz 16Go RAM and does my macbook pro 13" (2,9GHz intel core i7 - actually on 8Go RAM - 2011) support those?

  • Difference between i5 and i7 cpu for photography and design purposes

    I need to replace my old MBP and am not too familiar with tech specs concerning CPU and memory. I'm a photographer and use Adobe Lightroom and onOne Perfect Suite7. Working with images is my main goal. For video rendering and "heavy" stuff I have an iMac 27" i7. So a MacBook doesn't need to be a one in all solution.
    I compared a MBA 13" all-in, with a MBP 15" and a MBP 13" Retina. All configured with 8GB Ram I get price offers which vary a lot between these three models. My question is there a significant difference between the different CPUs for photo editing and design purposes? I don't want to spend a heap of money since MBs are pricey enough.

    Yes, on the big plus side of the non retina MBP is the possibility to tweak it a little by myself. I threw away the superdrives and replaced them with SSD drives for OSX and have second drives for all the data in my machines. CD and DVD is ancient storage technology anyway. Also did I upgrade RAM myself without paying Apple's ridiculous prices.
    With the upgrade to the widescreen non glossy display, I think I will be set up properly. However, I will checkout those retina displays tomorrow, just to really know it.
    But one question remains: Which CPU might be sufficient in the long run? I tend towards the 2,6GHz with 1GB RAM GPU
      2,3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 512 MB GDDR5 RAM
      2,6 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1 GB GDDR5 RAM [+ 200,00 €]
      2,7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1 GB GDDR5 RAM [+ 450,00 €]

  • What's the difference between redundancy and recovery window for retention?

    Hello all,
    I'm still trying to get a grip on this concept for RMAN backup planning.
    I recently ran into a situation as follows.
    I have the backups set to a redundancy of 1.
    I have instance1, which had GRID jobs to run RMAN backups as follows
    Incremental database level=0 weekly at Wed at 2:30am
    I have daily backups, incremental level=1 each evening
    I have archive log backups through the day.
    What happened, was that apparently on a Tues some time, the development team deleted data from almost every table in their schema.
    The didn't discover this till midday or so on Wednesday.
    I went to try to restore...and RMAN couldn't do it. I had found a SCN for early the Tues they did it...but I got the following error:
    RMAN> RUN
    2> {
    3> SET UNTIL SCN 4590383198282;
    4> RESTORE DATABASE;
    5> RECOVER DATABASE;
    6> }

    ORA-01180: can not create datafile 1
    ORA-01110: data file 1: '+DATADG/instance1/datafile/system.284.697137287'
    From what research I did...it appears that since I did not have a level=0 incremental from before, it could not reset the database back in time. The previous one had been deleted since, I guess I had a redundancy of 1.
    So, I thought I had a week backup they way I have it set..but that assumes that errors are found pretty quickly before the next level=0 backup.
    I want at least 1 to 1.5 weeks worth of backups. I do have the problem that we do not have many tapes in rotation, so I cannot go for too long...may 2x weeks tops.
    I'm trying to rethink my strategy, but I'm confused as I read as to the difference between setting RMAN retention with redundancy vs recovery window.
    Can someone give me an explanation how you understand it? I'm reading on the web and in oracle books, and for some reason, it just isn't clear to me what is the best way to go....especially when I see that redundancy and recovery window might both be set??
    Thank you in advance,
    cayenne

    Dear Cayenne
    AFAIK RMAN doesn't claim that "you haven't enough backup". Please read the error you got carefully
    ORA-01180: can not create datafile 1
    ORA-01110: data file 1: '+DATADG/instance1/datafile/system.284.697137287'
    and check the following link:
    ORA-01180: Cannot create datafile 1 when doing RMAN restore onto 2nd server
    Moreover, could you please use LIST BACKUP command and see whether you have enough backups?
    Read "Redundancy Based Backup Retention Policy" from the following link:

  • Difference between InDesign and Photoshop PDFs for printing?

    Hi, rather new to the whole printing business, forgive me.
    I have both InDesign and Photoshop, but I am better versed in Photoshop. Is there a significant difference between the capabilities for saving a PDF for print between the two? Also, would someone else be able to tell which program I made the PDF with?
    Thanks in advance.

    Like most operations, one tool or the other is more appropriate according to the makeup of the task. It's not just about which PDF is somehow "better," (there are many ways to produce PDF's, and the quality of output isn't necessarily directly dependent upon the originating application), but rather which tool is the correct one for the job.
    For instance, a movie poster can certainly be done completely in Photoshop to good effect. But, if I was laying out the pages of a textbook, where images and longer passages of paragraph-based text were to be mixed, the typographical and document assembly capabilities of InDesign would be indispensible. That's just an example. The very essence of art and design is learning and devising ways to use the available tools alone and in combination to produce a particular result, effect, or solution.

  • Performance difference between 6490M and 6750M?

    I'm looking at a new 15" MBP. What performance difference will I likely see between the Radeon 6490M and 6750M? It's a huge jump in graphics memory, but how much will it help me? I'm not a gamer at all, but I do a fair amount of work with photos and video.
    Thanks!

  • Performance difference between LIKE and "="

    May I know what will be the performance difference for
    select * from a where b = 'C'
    v.s.
    select * from a where b like 'C'
    In general, we don't notice any performance difference in using "LIKE" but under some situation we do. Any idea why?

    Equality is a relatively easy thing for the cost-based optimizer (CBO) to handle, so it is far more likely that it will generate the "right" query plan.
    It is a lot more difficult for the CBO to estimate how many rows a LIKE query will return, particularly since the vast majority of LIKE clauses have wild-cards. I would not be suprised if the CBO were occasionally generating incorrect plans if you are using LIKE where you could be using =.

  • Performance difference between sqlj and jdbc

    hi:
    i am working with a project and i have to generate text files

    satisfied with the performance. so i turn to java stored procedure. I have two choice sqlj and jdbc when accessing
    database? which performs better? sqlj or jdbc? or there's only
    little difference.
    And would u like to give me some other choice to run faster.
    maybe pro*c/c++ is a choice . but if it can't run much faster ,
    it's not a better choice.
