Running pacman has gotten very slow

When using pacman the download session has slowed to a crawl a slow crawl. Does anybody have any suggestions. I'm using pacman 3.

Edit the following files:
/etc/pacman.d/current
/etc/pacman.d/extra
/etc/pacman.d/community
Find the line with ftp.archlinux.org and comment them out for now. That site is having issues.

  • My MAC has gotten very slow. Pages load slowly. How do I fix this?

    My MAC has gotten very slow. Pages load slowly. Multi colored disc appears on screen at times. (like the hour glass on PC's) Anyone know how to spped it up like it was new? , at times not at all.

    Examine this comprehensive trouble shooting article:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3521
    Usually the Hard Disk Drive is the problem area.

  • My mini has gotten very slow in the last week or so.

    My mini has gotten really slow at everything in the last week. Most of what I do is done on the internet and I use Foxfire 4. Can anyone tell me how to run a system check that might help find the problem? Does anyone know of a problem with Foxfire 4 that might be causing this since I just down loaded it about a week ago.

    Welcome to the Apple discussions.
    On Foxfire, try using Safari or Opera and see if you have the same issue. You can also check the Foxfire site under support to see if any OS X issues have been reported.
    How much unused disk space do you have? General rule is keep 10%+ unused for systems usage. Less than that can really slow the system down.
    Some have found periodically using OnyX can help with performance. Download from http://www.titanium.free.fr/download.php and run the tasks on the cleaning and maintenance tabs. Before using any disk maintenance software you should have important data backed up.
    If you want, you can run the Apple hardware test to ensure you don't have a hardware problem. It's on one of the gray OS X disks that came with your system. Look for the 'AHT Version x.x' in small print on the label. Insert and reboot holding the D key down, or hold the alt/option key and choose the Apple hardware test when prompted. Choose the extended test.

  • Help: My PowerBookG4 has gotten very slow

    All of a sudden my PowerBook G4 has become very slow. I get lots of beachballs while it is thinking what to do. It takes 5 minutes to restart and sometimes 5-10 seconds just to open a folder (with a beachball while I wait). All apps are running slow. I have a 60 GB Hard drive with 6.5 GB free space. I just run repair permissions (nothing needed to be repaired) and I veriified the drive with HD utility and it said it is OK. Here is the info on my system:
    Machine Name: PowerBook G4 12" Machine Model: PowerBook6,4;CPU Type:PowerPC G4 (1.1); Number Of CPUs: 1; CPU Speed:1.33 GHz; L2 Cache (per CPU):512 KB Memory: 768 MB; Bus Speed:167 MHz.

    Esteban:
    Your HDD space is pretty close to the minimum 10%, although I suspect that is not the issue. However, you might benefit from taking a look at Dr. Smoke's FAQ Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk and free up some space before it gets too full and you run into further difficulties.
    Your RAM at 512 MB is a bit meager. Your RAM will max out at 1.25 GB. I suggest you boost it to at least 1 GB.
    I am not sure what maintenance procedures you do regularly. I suspect that one of the issues is that your computer needs maintenance. Download and launch MacJanitor and run the daily, weekly, monthly tests.
    Here are some article on maintenance procedures which have al lot of excellent suggestions and links to resources:
    Macintosh OS X Routine Maintenance
    Mac OS X 10.3/10.4: System maintenance
    Maintaining OS X
    Tuning Mac OS X Performance
    Please post back with update or further questions or comments.
    Good luck.

  • Why does my system freeze after ever update from Firefox...and has gotten very slow

    My computer freezes during or after every update that come in automatically recently. It has also gotten extremely slow at the same time.

    Your setup looks like it should really fly.
    Often when people have serious slowdowns like you mention, it comes down to one of two things:
    a) Some problem with the user's account. One way to test if this is the case is to create a new admin user and try running FCP X from this new account. If the same projects that were slow behave well in this account you'll know that some setting, or cache, or login item, or whatnot in your own account is responsible.
    b) Some problem with a plugin. If there is a plugin that you use all the time, and maybe was not updated for the current version, and can cause slowdowns, then maybe you think it is the machine. See what plugins you are using, and run a test project without them. Does it run as fast as it should?

  • My iMac has gotten very slow lately

    Hi!
    I have an iMac 21.5-inch, purchased August 2010.  OS X 10.8.5
    Lately it is been running very slow.  I double-click on an image, and Preview takes 30 seconds to open it. 
    I have done some reading and ran the EtreCheck report.  I see there are some things in red, but i don't know what they mean, and how to fix.  Any help would be so useful to me!  Thanks!

    Hello,
    I recommend you do the following steps to make your mac go faster:
    upgrade to 8GB of ram, especially since you have 2 free RAM slots in your Mac (the ratio for in/out shows that your RAM is used between 5 and 10 times too much, because of lack of RAM.
    try using a bigger external drive for you Time Capsule Backups (your iMac drive is 500GB, so i'd suggest at least 500GB)
    your drive is currently 320GB and it is full, so every hour, the mac is deleting older backups to make room for the new, and this slows down the mac.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    James

  • When I key on a website it will not come up all the sudden and the search times out. It is usually a click on attachment and Firefox has gotten very slow.

    For example, I opened my Citibank file and tried to open my Visa account and it would not open and then timed out. I tried to open from my email my college board account and it only timed out. I went to Internet Explorer and they opened. Is there a problem at Firefox?

    @Steve_Clairman, if you are looking for the orange Firefox button (abbreviated menus), it will appear if you turn off the classic menu bar:

  • My Razr has gotten so slow to respond to everything Any suggestions?

    My razr has gotten so slow responding to everything. Any suggestions?

    The above solutions are a Good start a few things I'll add, this what i do to my Razr's to keep them in the shape they are.
    1. shut the phone down at night unless you need it on.. power it down and then in the morning re-power up this is a good re-fresher I do this Quite often.
    2. If you can run your Razr through a System Cache at least every other week if you have allot apps and and other things running on the phone it might not hurt running it once every week..
    3. If you have apps slowing down the phone I'd try running it in Safe Mode see how it performs with it in engaged if you find problematic if you have an excessive amount of apps as Ref. suggested remove them.. 
    4. Add this app to your Phone <> System Panel App it is available in Free or Paid form I've had the paid Version for 3 years now on 4 phones I wouldn't be with out it <> Info for the App <> http://goo.gl/1mgfp5  <> the included link share's some light on the app.
    5. During the Day if you use the phone in a heavy way, Like using your apps, Camera, Text , Emails things like that you can Hold the Home button for a seconds doing this will bring up what you used to remove it either brush to the Right <> Left and it will clear it..
    6. If you bought a stand for your Razr and you can take it to work with you use it and a charger at your Desk that can help keep it charged it I have one of these Stands or Pedestal it's supposed to be called To look at shots of my stand and my Charge cord that came with it.. Follow below..

  • Mac book pro has become very slow. How to analyze this and resolve this?

    My mac book pro has become very slow. How to analyze and resolve this?

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    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 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.
    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.
    Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the problem.
    Step 1
    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 2
    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.

  • We recently had a few brief power failures. Since then, my Mac Pro has been very slow on start up. Any suggestions?

    We Recently had a few brief power failures. Since then, my Mac Pro has been very slow on startup. Any suggestions?

    Like the  man says:
    Run Disk Utility > Repair ... (not just repair permissions) while booted from another drive. If you have a stronger utility like Disk Warrior, that would be even better.
    If you find that the ONLY way you can do this is by booting from the DVD, The Hatter recommends you establish an emergency drive or partition on a drive other than the Boot drive and use that in the future. It makes emergency Repair, backup, and cloning much easier.

  • My internet has become very slow on Macbook Pro

    I don't know what happened but since few days my internet has become very slow on all sites It takes ages for a youtube video to be played. I sometimes to refresh a page for it to appear.
    Safari, Firefox and Chrome all 3 have become very slow.
    I tried changing my wireless internet 3 times but all the time it is slow.
    I have had my laptop for more than 3 years now.

    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.

  • My mac has become very slow and crashes frequently after installing Lion

    My mac has become very slow and crashes frequently after installing Lion. I have a 4 GB DDR3 ram and 2.4 GHz Processor. The Mac was running just fine on Snow Leopard. Has anyone else faced this issue?
    Any suggestions on how to solve it?
    Thank you
    Kimberly M. Noronha

    I refer you to the TM expert
    http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/14.html
    As a extra precaution I would copy the user file folders of Music, Documents, Pictures etc to another external drive and disconnect, just in case.
    Always maintain TWO backups of your data at all times, since your messing with one, you need another until your back at two again.

  • After downloading OS X Mountain Lion, my mac has become very slow

    After downloading OS X Mountain Lion, my mac has become very slow and takes a bit to shut down programmes. What can i do to bring it back up to the speed it was when i had OS X Lion

    Though I wish it were true, it is unrealistic to put 200+ new features into OS X and expect Mountain Lion to run faster and more efficient than Lion on the same hardware. I moved up from Lion to Mountain Lion. Mine is slowing down, but not very slow, as you mentioned. Safari and Mail are simply swine on launch. Check the following:
    Patience. If you are impatient and detail alters your mood, take your MBP to the Apple Genius bar.
    CPU. If you have a supported, but older MBP, your CPU may be showing its age.
    Memory. 4GB or 8GB in your MBP? Mountain Lion drinks more than Lion and if you run multiple large memory footprint applications, 4GB will be a performance bottleneck. My HD3000 graphics takes 512MB. Check the System Information report for your memory. Is it OK?
    Compatibility. Sometimes, hardware peripherals and applications are not entirely compatible with a new OS release, and divert OS performance to system log entries. A symptom is a large (> 2GB) system log file at /var/log/system.log. I just discovered a bad USB hub this way. Unplug everything and evaluate your performance again. Zero [ # > /var/log/system.log] the log file if you have the permissions.
    Permissions. Launch Disk Utility and verify/repair Disk Permissions on your Mountain Lion disk. While there, might as well Verify Disk too.
    Preferences. Sometimes, older preferences do not play well with upgraded application compatibility for a new OS release. It might be worthwhile to delete the specific preference and its lock file from Lion.
    Caches. As routine, just before I shutdown the system, I will move the contents of /Users/name/Library/Caches to the Trash. I tolerate Adobe Flash and use their preferences panel to delete all Flash content. Then on reboot, I delete the Trash. Application performance improves as a result.
    File Directory. Everytime that I upgrade OS X and run the retail Disk Warrior 4.4, it reports 25% storage fragmentation. Repairing and rebuilding the File Directory always restores noticeable I/O performance.
    Storage. If within your budget, upgrade to an SSD. Otherworld Computing has MBP SSD solutions.
    Applications. Some non-Apple applications may need recompilation for Mountain Lion, or behavior may be questionable. I compile my own MacVim editor from github sources. The same 64-bit binary that was compiled with XCode 4.3 on Lion, misbehaved on Mountain Lion. Rebuilt it with XCode 4.4 and worked fine.
