Processes in a zone runs extremly slow
I have created a zone in a Sun Fire T1000. This zone show the same strange symptom as another zone running in a T5200. The T1000 running in FSS-mode while the T5200 is running with default configuration. For instance, if i start a command like 'gzip <huge-file> &' . When i watch it with top i can see that the process only consumes approx. 4% of the CPU ? The T5200 does exactly the same thing.
Can someone give me a pointer here how to tune these two servers to give all the CPU-power they have when it's needed. There is no need to limit the amount of CPU, memory and swap in my case.

The 'top' figure you see is over the entire system. Because you have so many processors, a single-threaded application can only use a small percentage of the entire system at one time.
This is normal. If you really need more horsepower then:
*) run multiple copies. Instead of having one gzip zip up lots of files, run multiple gzip programs on a smaller set
*) run multi-threaded programs. Other "zip" type programs offer multi-threading so that other processors can be used.

How come my ps CS6 runs extremely slow?
After testing photoshop cs6, seeing how fast it worked on 3D on my pc I bought the web design and premium version. Time in between was several weeks. To my huge disappointement, the bought version runs extremely slow, mostly on 3D when I want to paint on target texture. Secondly I experiance a bug when I open my file and want to paint on targeted texture....brush shows inaccesible when wanting to paint. I do not mean greyed out, but the moment I hover over my 3d object it shows I cant paint (yes I have my layer selected;-). I have to fix this each time by changing targeted texture to some other and again switching back to the one I actually want to edit. As last thing, my OpenCL is greyed out.....maybe that causes the speed problems.....did not check with trial if it worked so not sure this is the issue=/....
When it comes to the speed I tried several things and now even reinstalled my whole pc hoping that would solve the problem.....it did not. Both CS6 photoshop 32-and 64-bit run slow on 3D.
I closed my trendmicro virusscanner to see if that would help....it speeded up only the start-up process but not the 3D. 3D works so slow that I have to wait 10 minutes after each move..just crazy....evenmore as it worked awesome with the trial version.
Also changed amount of memory assigned to ps by increasing to 80% and even 100%...nothing.
changed in graphic processors settings advanced into basic...nothing again.
No idea what to do next besides buying a new computer....I know I do not have a super strong one but as it worked perfectly I just don't get it. My pc runs this system:
Intel(R) Core (TM) 2CPU
[email protected] 2.66 Ghz
Ram 4GB
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
GeForce8800GTX
I have the feeling it is some conflict between an update of windows or graphic driver (I have the newest so my info tells me) and photoshop...any ideas what to do as this is extremely frustrating?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP
In case it helps this is the copied system info from photoshop:

Installed newer graphic driver as its seemed Microsoft update had an older one installed on my pc. This one is straight from Nvidia site with 3D support. Nevertheless ps runs slow and especially 3D. 32 Bit runs tiny bit faster than 64-bit. Now my photoshop even crashes with 3D: 32 bit holds out longer then 64...last one freezes almost immediately and I can close it through task manager. After installing newer driver at least the 64 bit shows OPenCL , where 32-bit not....maybe thats normal...
I hope anyone can help me as I even checked the system requirements on adobe and mine should be more than fine.
Message was edited by: NethergirlWell, it must be a system-specific bug of some sort that's been introduced, because I was able to create a 4200 x 3500 image made by mapping an image of similar size to a cylinder, and the cylinder would move/rotate in real time. Of course, I have a completely different video card and system than you do, but I'm just verifying that it's not broken everywhere.
Rendering isn't hugely fast, but that's not unexpected with a larger image.
Maybe being more specific would help. Is your mesh complex?
Is it something you'd be willing to share online or describe how to create? I would be happy to try to match what you're doing more thoroughly to see whether I can reproduce the slowdowns.
Beyond that, I'm not sure what to suggest... You don't have a lot of RAM to be working on 15 megapixel images, but as you say the thing to concentrate on is that you're seeing quite different performance from the Ps CS6 beta version.

Macbook Pro running extremely slow since updating to Yosemite
Hello All,
I am new to the community and I'm hoping your pooled expertise can assist me with my issues. I went ahead and posted the results of my diagnostic scan below. My main concerns are that my Macbook Pro is now extremely slow after OSX updates. Also, laptop is running extremely hot to touch. I have mentioned other ongoing issues. I offer thanks in advance for any assistance.
Problem description:
Macbook Pro 13":
Purchased in mid-2010.
Most Recent Issue (Main Concern):
(1) I recently updated OS X from Mountain Lion to Maverick. Computer began running extremely slow and “jerky.”
(1.1) Shortly after this I updated to OS X Yosemite. Computer runs, and types, even slower than before.
Ongoing Issues (Greater than one year):
(1) Extremely short battery life (may last two hours on full charge)
(2) Macbook runs extremely hot to touch (fan runs continuously but can’t begin to keep it cool)
(3) SD Card reader doesn't recognize/open an SD card when inserted.
Lex Cschellings Requested the Following:
No obvious elements in the list.
This may well be a dying disk and/or a very bad battery.
Do following:
make a new etrecheck list and in the problem description put what Applications->Utilities->SystemInformation says about the battery (under the Power heading in the left panel): give cycle count and battery condition.
Then post the link in a new thread.
In the meantime the crash report is probably a French Dictionary issue (font? garcon garçon) you have installed, uninstall that and see if it happens again.

Macbook Pro 2011 just started running extremely slow
After recent OS upgrades and general teenager use, the MacBook Pro all the sudden is running extremely slow. I am not a really technical person, what should I do to fix? I will start backing up now.
Thank you
MattYou may be able to improve the speed with some software work but it could also be your disk or SSD is corrupt or failing.
Try resetting PRAM and SMC:
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Is it faster now? If not, proceed.
Restart in Safe Mode:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564?viewlocale=en_US
If it boots faster then uninstall all unnecessary login items >User&Groups>Login items. Unlock the padlock. Remove them with the minus -
Also uninstall internet plug-ins in your browsers.
Is it faster now? If not, proceed.
Backup your data immediately:
Before proceeding you should make sure you have a current backup. If it has been getting slower over time your disk could be a failing slowly. SATA drives have two retry modes: short and long. They can continue operating as read errors are increasing. The long retry cycle is very long and can cause significant performance degradation. If it has started long retries then it is likely to get worse and eventually fail. SSDs also have a failure mode where the fail slowly.

Low disk space:
If your disk has less than 10% free space or less than 15 GB free it can slow down your Mac. For information on how to clear disk space see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5634300?tstart=30 .

- How to repair a filesystem on a working drive.
- How to check for runaway processes hogging the processor time.
Additional suggestions in "Why is my computer slow?” are particularly good.

- Corrupted Caches
Using Onyx to clear the caches.
- Step by Step to Fix your Mac:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3353
(I learned a lot reading this document. Good stuff.)
- A clean install.
After you have backed up your system twice.
Preferably with one of the backups being a clone.
Time Machine restores are complex and can sometimes fail.
You don’t want to risk all your data on one backup as you wipe out the data on your Mac.
As part of this clean install procedure erase the disk with Security Option Zero
that writes zeros to all sectors and remaps bad sectors as it does so.
That is a time consuming operation, but worth it.

Hardware replacement or upgrade?
Hopefully by now your Mac is back to its normal speed. If a hardware repair is indicated take it to an Genius bar at an Apple store for a free diagnosis and estimate of repairs. If it is under warranty or AppleCare they will repair it for free. If not, you can compare their estimate with DIY repairs.
Genius reservation http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ .
or find an Apple Authorized Service Provider https://locate.apple.com/country
You can speed it up further by upgrading some hardware. (Do not upgrade the hardware if it is still covered by the warranty or AppleCare.) For the following memory, disk or SSD replacements and upgrades check out OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/, Crucial: http://www.crucial.com/ and Kingston http://www.kingston.com/us/. You will need to know your Mac the year and season your Mac was first sold and model number which can be found here:
> About This Mac > More Info… > System Report > Model Identifier:
If your Mac has 2 or 4 GB of RAM, consider an upgrade to 8 GB (if the memory is upgradeable). An 8 GB memory upgrade is only $100. When I upgraded a MacBook from 2 GB o 8 GB it booted thee times faster.
If your Mac has a disk and it won’t repair properly, is low on disk space, or you just want a considerably faster disk, check out an upgrade to an SSD-Hybrid disk. Google "Seagate 1TB Solid State Hybrid Drive SATA 6Gbps 64MB Cache 2.5-Inch" or consider an SSD (120 to 480 GB).
OWC has SSD replacements and upgrades for MacBook Airs and Retina MacBook Pros.
Good luck. May the software fixes do the trick. -
MacBook Pro running extremely slow- something with RAM maybe?
I'm using a MacBook Pro, and yesterday, out of nowhere it stated running extremely slow and constantly freezes. I did some research and ended up looking in the Activity Monitor, and it seemed like I have no free space available - so I deleted a bunch of files and the computer is still running exactly as slow as it was before. My stats on the activity monitor are:
Free: 9.7 MB
Wired: 851.7 MB
Active: 2.11 GB
Inactive: 1.05 GB
Used: 3.99 GB
VM Size: 162.33 GB
Page ins: 541.0 MB
Page outs: 4.02 GB
Swap Used: 10.41 GB
Finder says I have 317.3 GB available. What's the problem here?Safe mode prevents almost all third-party software from running such as preference panes, plug-ins, extensions, and launchagents and launch daemons. Normal boot lets all that run. So the issue is with one or more of these third-party items. Perhaps you can download EtreCheck 1.9.10 and run it when your system is at it's worst state. Then post the results here for us to check.
Also,
Pre-Mavericks
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Mavericks and later
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the View menu. Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem. -

Since you have barely enough Ram, you must be very careful about running too many apps together, and avoid everything that is not really needed, or even not compatible.
1. uninstall iAntivirus and MacKeeper completely, Counterproductive.
Uninstall also the Seagate disk software.
2. you have uTorrent installed and used it. Even worse it runs continuously! This app- as other torrent apps- broadcatsts your data, and the downloaded items are often infected. A mac is much more sensitive than a PC. So carefully examine which apps were so downloaded; and think about it before using the torrent app again.
3. In SystemPreferences->Users&Groups->LoginItems remove ALL entries, with the minus sign underneath.
After that restart.
4. Now uninstall the following: Growl, smcFancontrol, LittleSnitch, AndroidFileTransfer.
5. I do not have experience with all those audio and music apps you use, but I expect several are not (yet) compatible with Yosemite. Check that and uninstall what is not ready for Yosemite. Maybe you do not even need some at all.
6. Rethink which apps are hacked. They may be infected.
7. In MacintoshHD->Library->InternetPlug-ins delete the two AdobePDFViewer plugins.
8. In MacintoshHD->Library->LaunchDaemons delete the Adobe Switchboard plist.
9. Carefully research the compatibility of Digidesign !! -
Machine running extremely slow
I am noticing my machine is running extremely slow. Even with out any Apps open my system memory is only at around 30% so not sure where the band width hog is? Looking at the activity monitor there are allot of things going on / most of which I do not know what they are.
I just ran an EtreCheck - does anyone here know of a way I can stream line my system to run faster and not chock so much?
Thanks

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal 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. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
Step 1
This diagnostic procedure will query the system log for messages that may indicate a hardware fault. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator. I've tested them only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal 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. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
Step 2
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
Step 3
When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor 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. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 4
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long. -

You have two problems going on here...
1. Everyday laptop aren't made for hardcoregaming and overheating will cause your system to crash or freeze or lockup.
2. Flash problem would indicate corrupt installation files...
1. Get a Gaming laptop that will cost you 2000US or above
2. Reinstall flash...

You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If the Downloads button (with the icon of a downward-pointing arrow) is showing in the toolbar, click it and then click Clear in the box that appears. The download history will be removed. Any change?
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Follow the instructions in this support article. Any change?
Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference? -
My NB-505 runs very slowly even after a memory upgrade to 2GB. I have read comments from other users that this can sometimes result from "bloatware" packaged with the system, eating memory and hurting performance. If this is true, what packaged software should I look for and uninstall?

Firefox runs extremely slow on 64 bit PC it takes forever to open bookmarks and also hangs when I try to open anything within firefox I have used firefox since it started on 32 bit systems until I installed it on my 64 bit a week ago and have had this problem and others since, are we going to get a 64 bit firefox
Thanks for getting back to me Dave!
The file is about 91 MB in size, with just under 400 scanned pages.
I’ve also encountered the problem when I’ve tried to OCR one of these old books. I’ve had to do it 50-100 pages at a time, closing and re-opening the file each time.
Based on my online search for a solution, I had concluded that the 2 GB limit for 32-bit programs was the most likely source of the problem. But I’m wondering now if Acrobat could use 2 GB in processing a 91 MB file. -
