Question regarding calculating a formula to add three tables of numbers

I need help with a form that I would like to show the Total of numbers from Table 6, 7 and 8.  I have put in codes for the Subtotals but the final total I can't seem to figure out.  Can someone help me with the coding to add subtotal 1, 2 and 3.
Thanks

Thanks for a quick response but I noticed also that some of my cells in the table were not numeric so I changed it.  The Subtotal is not working.  I am getting an error.  Your formula was working but it did not include the last total of numbers. It should include tables 6, 7 and 8 totals.  Can you look at it again.  Thanks again!!

  • Question regarding Calculated Key Figures in BEx and their impact on SQL

    Hello,
    I am new to BO SAP integration. I have a question regarding using CKF in BEx.
    I created universe off of a BEx query with no CKF. I then created a Webi report with come dimensions and measures. I captured the SQL generated using trace (ST05).
    In the same BEx, I then create a CKF. Then refreshed the universe and created a new Webi report using the same dimensions and the CKF. The SQL generated had many more select statements.
    My question is what is the effect of CKF on the generated SQL and is there a performance issues using CKF in BEx as opposed to creating variables in Webi report?
    Thanks,
    Nikhil

    Hi,
    if your CKF will have always same unit and you have one KF in you inforpovider with this unit, you can try to do this trick
    create a new hidden CKF as new CKF = KF / KF (with this equale new CKF = 1 unit)
    change your old CKF as old CKF = old CKF * new CKF
    let me know if it works.

  • Questions regarding Optimizing formulas in IP

    Dear all,
    This weekend I had a look at the webinar on Tips and Tricks for Implementing and Optimizing Formulas in IP.
    I’m currently working on an IP-implementation and encounter the following when getting more in-depth.
    I’d appreciate very much if you could comment on the questions below.
    <b>1.)</b> I have a question regarding optimization 3 (slide 43) about Conditions:
    ‘If the condition is equal to the filter restriction, then the condition can be removed’.
    I agree fully on this, but have a question on using the Planning Function (PF) in combination with a query as DataProvider.
    In my query I have a filter in the Characteristic restriction.
    It contains variables on fiscal year, version. These only allow single value entry.
    The DataProvider acts as filter for my PF. So I’d suppose I don’t need a condition for my PF since it is narrowed down on fiscal year and version by my query.
    <b>a.) Question: Is that correct?</b>
    I just one to make sure that I don’t get to many records for my PF as input. <u>How detrimental for performance is it to use conditions anyway?</u>
    <b>2.)</b> I read in training BW370 (IP-training) that a PF is executed for the currently set filter (navigational state) in the query and that characteristics that are used in restricted keyfigures are ignored in the filter.
    So, if I use version in the restr. keyfig it will be ignored.
    <b>Questions:
    a.) Does this mean that the PF is executed for all versions in the system or for the versions that are in the filter of the Characteristic Restrictions and not the currently set filter?</b>
    <b>b.) I’d suppose the dataset for the PF can never be bigger than the initial dataset that is selected by the query, right?
    c.) Is the PF executed anaway against navigational state when I use filtering? If have an example where I filter on field customer thus making my dataset smaller, but executing the PF still takes the same amount of time.
    d.) And I also encounter that the PF is executed twice. A popup comes up showing messages regarding the execution. After pressing OK, it seems the PF runs again...</b>
    <b>3.)</b> If I use variables in my Planning Function I don’t want to fill in the parameter VAR_VALUE with a value. I want to use the variable which is ready for input from the selection screen of the query.
    So when I run the PF it should use the BI-variable. It’s no problem to customize this in the Modeler. But when I go into the frontend the field VAR_VALUE stays empty and needs a value.
    <b>Question:
    a.) What do I enter here? For parameter VAR_NAME I use the variable name, but what do I use for parameter VAR_VALUE?  Also the variable name?</b>
    <b>4.)</b> Question regarding optimization 6 (slide 48) about Formulas on MultiProviders:
    'If the formula is using data of only one InfoProvider but is defined on a MultiProvider, the the complete formual should be moved to the single base InfoProvider'.
    In our case we have three cubes in the MP, two realtime and one normal one. Right now we have one AggrLevel (AL) on op of the MP.
    For one formula I can use one cube so it's better to cretae another AL with the formula based on that cube.
    For another formula I need the two <u>realtime</u> cubes. This is interesting regarding the optimization statement.
    <b>Question:
    a.) Can I use the AL on the MP then or is it better to create a <u>new</u> MP with only these two cubes and create an AL on top of that. And than create the formula on the AL based on the MP with the two cubes?</b>
    This makes the architecture more complex.
    Thanks a lot in advance for your appreciated answers!
    Kind regards, Harjan

    Marc,
    Some additional questions regarding locking.
    I encounter that the dataset that is locked depends on the restrictions made in the 'Characteristic Restrictions'-part of the query.
    Restrictions in the 'Default Values'-part are not taken into account. In that case all data records of the characteristic are locked.
    Q1: Is that correct?
    To give an example: Assume you restrict customer on hierarchy node in Default Values. If you want people to plan concurrently this is not possible since all customers are locked then. When customer restriction is moved to Char Restr the system only locks the specific cutomer hier node and people can plan concurrently.
    Q2: What about variables use in restricted keyfigures like variable for fy/period? Is only this fy/period locked then?
    Q3: We'd like to lock on a navigational attribute. The nav attr is put as a variable in the filter of the Characteristic Restrictions. Does the system then only lock this selection for the nav.attr? Or do I have to change my locking settings in RSPLSE?
    Then question regarding locking of data for functions:
    Assume you use the BEx Analyzer and use the query as data_provider_filter for your planning function. You use restricted keyfigures with char Version. First column contains amount for version 1 and second column contains amount for version 2.
    In the Char Restrictions you've restricted version to values '1' and '2'.
    When executing the inputready query version 1 and 2 are locked. (due to the selection in Char Restr)
    But when executing the planning function all versions are locked (*)
    Q4: True?
    Kind regards, Harjan

  • Question regarding the installation of a J2EE 6.40 Add-in

    Hi all,
    I would like to install a J2EE engine on a test instance of ECC 5.0 and have a few questions regarding the installation...
    Do I have to use the MASTER CD to first install the J2EE engine (Support Package 0) and then apply the latest support packages found on the SAP Marketplace?
    Or should be able to directly install the J2EE Add-In by using the latest support packages found on the SAP Marketplace?
    Best regards,
    Xavier Vermaut

    Thanks Bhavik for your reply,
    That's what I actually thought but I get the following problem... Here's what I wrote into my customer message... I am still waiting for an answer and would like to get this solved ASAP
    Dear SAP,
    We would like to install the J2EE 6.40 Add-In on our ECC 5.0 instance
    (TST) but get the following error message at the very beginning of the
    installation
    > Cannot find an installed ABAP system, which is a prerequisite for a
    > J2EE Add-In installation. The installation cannot continue.
    We checked the installation logs (sapinst_dev.log) and found the
    following :
    > Found these instances:
    > sid: MGR, number: 00, name: DVEBMGS00, host: erpqs1a
    > sid: TST, number: 10, name: DVEBMGS10, host: erpqs1a
    Why does the installation say that it can not find any ABAP systems when
    having previously found the 2 different instances running on this
    server?
    Would this problem be related to the fact that we have two instances on
    this server?
    Please find hereunder the way we performed this installation :
    01) Download of the 4 different parts of SAP J2EE Engine 6.40 SP 10
         (Solaris 10 - Oracle)

         Part IV  : J2EERT10_0-10001982.SAR          (OS Independant)
    02) Extract these 4 archives into /install/J2EE_640
    03) Check Java Version and Environment Variables
    04) Check Solaris Pre-Requisites

  • Calculated Field formula not appearing in Power View Field List panel

    Hi,
    On Power View1 sheet of this
    workbook, the two PowerPivot calculated Field formulas (First Visit and First date of FY) are not appearing in the Power View Fields panel on the right hand side.
    I want to drag client and First Visit (calculated Field) to the Power View.
    Why is this happening?
    Regards, Ashish Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com

    I found a workaround for it - I was having the same problem as you. I wanted to display the last refresh date of my data, but Power View wouldn't display a date resulting from the [Last Refresh]=MAX(Date[Date]) formula.
    HOWEVER, a Pivot Table can handle that Calculated field just fine. So I renamed my measure "Refreshed Date" and added another tab in the Excel Sheet. I added a Pivot Table from PowerPivot into cell A1 and the only thing I put was that single
    measure (A2). To the right of that, I did =A2 and created an Excel Data Table. The title of that was "Last Refresh". Now, I could add that Data Table to the PowerPivot Model and into Power View. And then I hid that tab.
    The only downside to this method, is that if you're refreshing single tables at a time, you have to remember to refresh the Pivot Table when new data is added AND update the data in the model. I'm only connecting to one database, so I just choose
    "Refresh All" in Excel and it updates everything. It works perfectly! :)
    Well shoot, I even took a screenshot that helped explain everything, but it won't let me post it because my account isn't verified and it won't tell me how. If you have any questions, please let me know and I'll clarify!

  • Lookup column in calculated column formula

    I have a Lookup column(Discountfirst) which has Number.
    I also have another Calculated column(Finaldate) with Resulttype DateTime.
    One more column(DateofReceipt) in Date.
    My Calculated column formula looks like this
    =(DateofReceipt)+(Discountfirst).
    I get an error
    "One or more column references are not allowed, because the columns are defined as a data type that is not supported in formulas".
    I googled and came to know I can't use Lookup Column in Calculated field.
    Any suggestion how can do this ?

    This can't be done using calculated columns because calculated columns can only be used for columns on the same list.
    Using SharePoint Designer Workflows you can just use Create List Item and Update List Item actions so that whenever a user adds a value the item will be added in another list's column which contains the previous amounts already.

  • Spreadsheet question: How to apply formula to entire row?

    I am updating cells which already contain formulas. Can I select the entire row, and apply an additional formula (i.e.: 1.5*) or do I have to do it individually for each cell (there are hundreds)? I need the original formulas to stay in place, and they vary.

    Hi Pamela,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions and the AppleWorks forum.
    (The following was begun before Niel's post, and completed, with a few breaks, some time after it. It addresses a shortcoming with the solution suggested above, so I haven't altered it beyond adding this paragraph.)
    I'm not certain as to exactly what you're requesting here. Do you mean you currently have the same formula in these cells (eg. =(A1-A2) ) and you want to change all of those formulas to (same eg. =1.5*(A1-A2) ). That's cetainly possible if the formulas are in contiguous cells (or in separater groups of contiguoous cells). For the example, select the first cell containing the formula and all the others contiguous to it. Make the change in the entry box, then press command-R to fill the changed formula to selected cells in the same row and to the right, then command-D to fill the formula to all selected cells below the row containing the edited cell.
    OTOH, if you want to make the change to separate (ie. non-contiguous) cells, or to cells which do not contain what's essentially the same formula (with only the cell references changed to reference a cell located in the same relative position), I don't see any way to do it directly within the spreadsheet.
    If the existing formulas are such that you can write a description of where to insert the change, it may be possible to make such a global change through an AppleScript, or through transferring the spreadsheet content to a word processing document, using Find/Change to make the revisions there, then transferr the result back to the spreadsheet (or more cautiously, to a new spreadsheet).
    An AppleScript is someone else's territory. Here's how it could be done using the word processor.
    For the example, I'll assume you want to change ALL formulas in the spreadsheet by adding the instruction to multiply the (result of the) current calculation by 1.5.
    • Open the spreadsheet.
    • Go Options > Display...
    • Check the box "Formulas", Click OK.
    • Select ALL of the cells containing data or a formula.
    • Copy.
    • Open a new word processing document.
    • Paste.
    • Press command-F to open the Find/Change dialogue.
    • Enter "=" in the Find box, press tab, enter "=1.5*" in the Change box (no quotes in either case).
    • Click Change All. OK the two alerts that follow. Close the Find/Change dialogue.
    • Press command-A to Select All. Copy.
    • Open a new spreadsheet document.
    • Paste.
    • Done.
    Limitation: This will work only if the amended formula will give the expected result. Consider the example above, =(A1-A2) with 2 in A1 and 1 in A2.
    As written, the original formula ( =(A1-A2) ) returns a result of "1", and the amended formula ( =1.5*(A1-A2) ) returns the expected result 1.5.
    But it's unlikely the original will have included the parentheses,as they're not necessary to a correct result.
    If the original is =A1-A2, the result is still 1, but the amended formula ( =1.5*A2-A1 ) will return the result "2", not 1.5.
    Revising the beginning of the altered formula to add an opening parenthesis is easy. The difficulty here is telling Find/Change (or AppleScript) how to add the matching closing parenthesis to fomulas but not to the contents of cells containing labels, other text, or nothing at all..
    *An alternate approach:* Rather than revising the existing spreadsheet's formulas, this method transfers the labels and results to a new section of the spreadsheet, multiplies the original results by 1.5, and displays the new result.
    For discussion purposes, I'll assume the current spreadsheet contains 25 columns (A..Y) and 100 rows (1..100) of data and labels.
    • Go Format > Document...
    • Change the default 40 cells wide to 52 (or enough to accomodate twice as many columns as you have containing data now).
    • Click OK
    • Select a cell to the right of the cells containing data in the current spreadsheet. (For the example, choose cell AA1)
    • Enter the following formula:
            =IF(ISTEXT(A1),A1,IF(ISBLANK(A1),"",A1*1.5))
    • Select the block of cells extending right and down from AA1 that matches the size of the original block (for the example, AA1..AY100).
    • Fill the formula Right (command-R) and Down (command-D).
    The formula will copy the text from cells containing text, keep cells blank ("") where the originals were blank, and enter the results, multiplied by 1.5, for cells where the originals contain a formula with a numerical result or a number.
    Limitation: The formula does not distinguish between an entered number and one generated by a formula contained in the referenced cell. All numeric values will be multiplied.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • Questions regarding chapter markers

    I've got a few questions regarding working with chapter markers. First a little background info. I'm working in CS 5.5. I used Dynamic Link to send a Premiere sequence to Encore. In Premiere, I've got another sequence that is an exact duplicate of the original, with just a little text added.
    I decided that I need to go back and add chapter markers, so I went through the initial Premiere sequence and added all the Encore Chapter Markers. I'd like all the chapter markers to be consistent in all three locations without having to re-do it manually each time.
    Is there any way to bring those markers into Encore withour re-importing the sequence? I kind of figured that was the point of using Dynamic Link, but the markers aren't showing up in Encore.
    And then, is there a way to copy those markers within Premiere from one sequence to the other?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    (Dear mods: a little overzealous with the thread moving. This had enough to do with Premiere Pro that it could have remained there... and saved me from retyping my reply.)
    Is there any way to bring those markers into Encore withour re-importing the sequence?
    This part is Encore. In the Encore Timeline containing the PPro sequence you're using with DL, select the sequence/asset, and go to Edit > Update Markers From Source. A warning dialog will pop up about replacing the markers; when you OK it, the markers positions and names will be updated.
    And then, is there a way to copy those markers within Premiere from one sequence to the other?
    It's not possible to copy and paste markers, but here's a workaround of sorts (assuming your sequences are the same duration and you want the markers at the same times):
    Drag the sequence that contains the chapter markers into the sequence that doesn't; because the Encore chapter markers are sequence markers, they'll turn into clip markers when you nest the sequence. Select this nested sequence, and then use the Next (or Previous) Clip Marker (found under Marker > Go to Clip Marker, or with keyboard shortcuts) to jump to each clip marker. When you land on one, add a chapter marker to the sequence; if you don't already, set up a keyboard shortcut for this and it will make adding the markers a breeze. Now, you'll have to add names, if you want them, but at least this will make matching the time much easier.

  • Question regarding Dashboard and column prompt

    My question regarding Dashboard and column prompt:
    1) Dashboard prompt usually work with only for columns which are in subject area. In my report I've created some of the columns which are based on other columns. Like I've daysNumber column that is based on two other columns, as it calculates the difference of two dates. When I create dashboard prompt I can't find this column there. I need to make a prompt on this column.
    2)For one of the column I've only two values 1 and 0. When I create prompt for this column, is it possible that in drop down list It shows 'Yes' for 1 and 'No' for 0 and still filter the request??

    Hi Toony,...
    I think there was another way of doing this...
    In the dashboard prompt go to Show option > select SQL Results from dropdown.
    There you need to write your Logical SQL like...
    SELECT CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN PERIODS.YEAR ELSE difference of date functionality END FROM SubjectAreaName
    Here.. Periods.Year is the column which is already exists in repository's presentation layer..
    and difference of date functionality is the code or formula of column which you want to show in drop-down...
    Also write the CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN PERIODS.YEAR ELSE difference of date functionality END code in fx of that prompt.
    I think it helps you in doing this..
    Just check and inform me if it works...
    Thanks & Regards

  • I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac Pro

    I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac pro (early 2009).
    These questions might seem stupid to many of you, but, as my last, in fact my one and only, computer before the Mac Pro was a IICX/4/80 running System 7.5, I am a complete novice regarding this particular matter.
    A few days ago I installed a WD3000HLFS VelociRaptor 300GB in bay 1, and moved the original 640GB HD to bay 2. I now have 2 bootable internal drives, and currently I am using the VR300 as my startup disk. Instead of cloning from the original drive, I have reinstalled the Mac OS, and all my applications & software onto the VR300. Everything is backed up onto a WD SE II 2TB external drive, using Time Machine. The original 640GB has an eDrive partition, which was created some time ago using TechTool Pro 5.
    The system will be used primarily for photo editing, digital imaging, and to produce colour prints up to A2 size. Some of the image files, from scanned imports of film negatives & transparencies, will be 40MB or larger. Next year I hope to buy a high resolution full frame digital SLR, which will also generate large files.
    Currently I am using Apple's bundled iPhoto, Aperture 2, Photoshop Elements 8, Silverfast Ai, ColorMunki Photo, EZcolor and other applications/software. I will also be using Photoshop CS5, when it becomes available, and I will probably change over to Lightroom 3, which is currently in Beta, because I have had problems with Aperture, which, until recent upgrades (HD, RAM & graphics card) to my system, would not even load images for print. All I had was a blank preview page, and a constant, frozen "loading" message - the symbol underneath remained static, instead of revolving!
    It is now possible to print images from within Aperture 2, but I am not happy with the colour fidelity, whereas it is possible to produce excellent, natural colour prints using its "minnow" sibling, iPhoto!
    My intention is to buy another 3 VR300s to form a 4 drive Raid 0 array for optimum performance, and to store the original 640GB drive as an emergency bootable back-up. I would have ordered the additional VR300s already, but for the fact that there appears to have been a run on them, and currently they are out of stock at all, but the more expensive, UK resellers.
    I should be most grateful to receive advice regarding the following questions:
    QUESTION 1:
    I have had a look at the RAID setting up facility in Disk Utility and it states: "To create a RAID set, drag disks or partitions into the list below".
    If I install another 3 VR300s, can I drag all 4 of them into the "list below" box, without any risk of losing everything I have already installed on the existing VR300?
    Or would I have to reinstall the OS, applications and software again?
    I mention this, because one of the applications, Personal accountz, has a label on its CD wallet stating that the Licence Key can only be used once, and I have already used it when I installed it on the existing VR300.
    QUESTION 2:
    I understand that the failure of just one drive will result in all the data in a Raid 0 array being lost.
    Does this mean that I would not be able to boot up from the 4 drive array in that scenario?
    Even so, it would be worth the risk to gain the optimum performance provide by Raid 0 over the other RAID setup options, and, in addition to the SE II, I will probably back up all my image files onto a portable drive as an additional precaution.
    QUESTION 3:
    Is it possible to create an eDrive partition, using TechTool Pro 5, on the VR300 in bay !?
    Or would this not be of any use anyway, in the event of a single drive failure?
    QUESTION 4:
    Would there be a significant increase in performance using a 4 x VR300 drive RAID 0 array, compared to only 2 or 3 drives?
    QUESTION 5:
    If I used a 3 x VR300 RAID 0 array, and installed either a cloned VR300 or the original 640GB HD in bay 4, and I left the Startup Disk in System Preferences unlocked, would the system boot up automatically from the 4th. drive in the event of a single drive failure in the 3 drive RAID 0 array which had been selected for startup?
    Apologies if these seem stupid questions, but I am trying to determine the best option without foregoing optimum performance.

    Well said.
    Steps to set up RAID
    Setting up a RAID array in Mac OS X is part of the installation process. This procedure assumes that you have already installed Mac OS 10.1 and the hard drive subsystem (two hard drives and a PCI controller card, for example) that RAID will be implemented on. Follow these steps:
    1. Open Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities).
    2. When the disks appear in the pane on the left, select the disks you wish to be in the array and drag them to the disk panel.
    3. Choose Stripe or Mirror from the RAID Scheme pop-up menu.
    4. Name the RAID set.
    5. Choose a volume format. The size of the array will be automatically determined based on what you selected.

    Recovering from a hard drive failure on a mirrored array
    1. Open Disk Utility in (/Applications/Utilities).
    2. Click the RAID tab. If an issue has occurred, a dialog box will appear that describes it.
    3. If an issue with the disk is indicated, click Rebuild.
    4. If Rebuild does not work, shut down the computer and replace the damaged hard disk.
    5. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
    6. Drag the icon of the new disk on top of that of the removed disk.
    7. Click Rebuild.

    Drive A + B = VOLUME ONE
    Drive C + D = VOLUME TWO
    What you put on those volumes is of course up to you and easy to do.
    A system really only needs to be backed up "as needed" like before you add or update or install anything.
    /Users can be backed up hourly, daily, weekly schedule
    Media files as needed.
    Things that hurt performance:
    Page outs
    Spotlight - disable this for boot drive and 'scratch'
    SCRATCH: Temporary space; erased between projects and steps.

    Disk drives are the slowest component, so tackling that has always made sense. Easy way to make a difference. More RAM only if it will be of value and used. Same with more/faster processors, or graphic card.

  • Questions on Calculation Scripts

    I have two questions on Calculation Scripts:
    1. When executing a Calculation script via the Administration Services console (right-click execute) besides the Messages lower window pane, is there a detailed log/trace of the script activity?
    2. We had a calc script #1 and we wanted to modifying it. We cut the entire script out into Windows notepad, made the adjustments then paste back into the script. When we go to parse it came back with validation errors. However if we simply edit the existing script within the console (do not cut and paste outside of AAS) it correctly validates. Bug? Limitation?
    Thanks
    JTS

    Just to add to that, each application has its own log.
    For example if you the Sample essbase application will have a log named sample.log and will be located in <essbase home dir>\app\sample or in V11 <hyperion home>logs\essbase\app\sample
    Cheers

  • Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install tiger discs version 10.4.10. Is it safe to downgrade or not please help

    Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from Sep 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install (2) tiger discs version 10.4.10.  I want to know if it is safe and what are the necessary steps to do so. Also by downgrading im wondering if a lot of apps nowadays support tiger for example I have photoshop version 5 and 4 these are very important to me. One last question does anyone know of any reliable virus protection for mac that doesnt slow down your computer? because I have read that a lot of them do so. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it! Here are the specs for my iMac 
    Model Name:
    iMac
      Model Identifier:
    iMac7,1
      Processor Name:
    Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed:
    2 GHz
      Number Of Processors:
    1
      Total Number Of Cores:
    2
      L2 Cache:
    4 MB
      Memory:
    2 GB
      Bus Speed:
    800 MHz

    Most of the time a perception of general slow performance is the result of installing third party junk alleged to speed up, "clean" or "optimize" your Mac, or to look for viruses that don't exist. Ideally you would know what you installed so you can uninstall it, but if you don't know or aren't sure there are techniques such as Safe Mode and creating a temporary user account to confirm that suspicion.
    If you open Activity Monitor it may show a process, or processes, that occupy a lot of your system's time.
    Slowness confined solely to web browser activity is often the result of an inexorable progress toward websites that demand ever more processor-intensive tasks. If your slow performance is strictly limited to web browsing, you might try disabling Flash by either uninstalling it, or use utilities such as ClickToFlash that allow you to control what Flash content gets loaded. Flash in itself is not inherently evil, but there is nothing to stop websites or the advertisers who pay for them from writing horrible Flash code that can do everything from hogging 100% of your CPU's time to causing random crashes. You can watch Activity Monitor as in the above to correlate these troublesome web pages with performance degradation.
    You are correct; if your computer shipped with Tiger you may certainly revert to it. I forgot that Tiger was shipping on new Macs as recently as five years ago. To downgrade it would be necessary to completely erase your hard disk and boot with the Tiger installation DVD, followed by installing it anew. Such drastic measures are not necessary and you are unlikely to be satisfied with the results anyway.
    Assuming your system is free of third party parasitic junk attached to OS X in an ill-conceived attempt to improve upon it, that your hard disk drive is sound and the boot volume has enough free space to work with, by far the best performance-enhancing improvement would be to add more memory. Buy as much as your computer can use and that you can afford. 2 GB is not that much any more.
