S5000 4.4.2 OTA lag/slow system-wide, don't update!

Just installed the 4.4.2 on my S5000-H (3G version) and it lags like hell. The whole system. It used to be fairly snappy but now everything takes maybe a half second, even bringing up recent apps list or pressing home button. I feel it's a real downgrade, even typing seems slow, like an old single core phone running 4.3, not a quad running 4.4!
I tried changing to ART & it rebooted but only took normal boot time, no app reoptimising, so I guess it's not switched?
Can you push a fix (btw, Capservice is killing my battery, whatever it is) our let us downgrade? Otherwise I'll have to do a warranty return

**bleep** is this "CapService" ?
It appeared after the KitKat 4.4 Update. I cannot deactivate it and it kills my battery!

Hi,
Shut down the notebook. Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu. Select the Bios option ( usually f10 ) and under the Advanced or Diagnostic tab you should find the facility to run tests on both the Hard Drive and Memory. Post back with the details of any error messages.
Note: If the option to run these tests is not available in the Bios Menu, use the f2 diagnostic menu instead.
Can you also post back with the following details.
1. The full Model No. and Product No. of your notebook - see Here for a guide on locating this information.
2. The full version of the operating system you are using ( ie Windows 7 64bit ).

Disk too slow / System overload HELP?

I'm really hoping someone can help me out with this!:
I purchased a G4 PowerBook around six months ago, with Logic Pro pre-installed. Since then, I have mixed and mastered lots of music that was recorded on a previous system and imported. I was running multiple tracks simultaneously with tons of plug-ins and everything ran smoothly on my new Mac. HOWEVER, within the last month, my playback capabilities have been severely reduced. When I try to play back even two tracks simultaneously (with just one compressor or reverb), I get the error message, "Disk too slow / System overload."
My first reaction to this problem was to check my disk space and see how much room I had left: it turns out I have over one third of my harddrive space still available. I checked my memory capabilities and they seem to be more than adequate. I bought new virus protection, too, and ran scans to see if that might make a difference, but it hasn't. I don't understand why this is happening on a system so new. ANY ADVICE YOU CAN OFFER WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!
Many thanks.
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

It is generally not a good idea to run logic on the same drive that contains your audio files and samples. Most of the data involved with logic whether it be programs or individual audio files will be saved physically all over the place on your hard drive. At a certain point the actual part of the drive that reads the data will not be able to move around to all the little different audio files it needs to access for the session on top of running the program and whatever other software that is up. It is best to save all your audio files and samples to a fast external drive (7200rpm at least) otherworldcomputing.com has great drives that have high quality cases and the option to put any drive they have in stock into the case. (i would recommend seagate) If you are going to continue running your entire sessions off the internal drive then you need to keep up with your basic mac housekeeping. You should repair your permissions 2 times a month (use disk utility) You should buy a good directory repair program such as disk warrior. The directory is exactly what it sounds like. It keeps track of where everything is on the computer. If your directory is corrupt the computer will have to do an extra manual search to find what its looking for. If your directory is healthy your computer will make a straight shot to the file you are looking for.

System wide lag

Hello guys, new member here.
I'd like you guys to help me out with something here.
I have a 13 inch, mid 2013 macbook pro with a 2.9 ghz i7, 8 gb RAM and a 750 gig HDD.
My problem is every now and then there is a system wide lag which freezes pretty much everything and audio playing from itunes also pauses during that time, it's quite frustrating as i've been searching for a fix since yesterday but havent found anything that can completely fix it. Usually there is only itunes, safari, mail and maybe one or two more things open at a time. I have checked my HDD for issues but there seem to be none. I suspect that this is related to the CPU since while I was using safari, a process called WindowServer would start using around 35% CPU, with nothing that intensive open on the browser
Note: This was ocurring much more frequently this morning but it has gotten a bit better now after I downloaded chrome and started using it instead of safari, I would, however, like to use safari instead.
Thanks in advance, I would be very thankful if someone could help me out with this, I have my exams coming up and I rely on my laptop for a lot of stuff.

I've got this problem on Macbook pro (mid 2010, 2,4ghz i5, 8gb ram, nvidia gt330m)
I don't think it ever happened before upgrading to mavericks. But now it's horrible!
It seems to only happen to me when I'm running unity3D, but does happen every minute or even more often. And the system freezes for anywhere between a second and 15 seconds...

Fresh install, random 100% drive usage and system wide lag.

Hi there, i just fresh installed Win 8.1 after having the issue of a svchost thrashing 100% disk access for minutes at a time and lagging whole system inc mouse pointer to the point that apps and games start to crash and the issue has not gone away.
I had also had the issue on old pc using different drives.
This is the 4th system where ive seen this behaviour in Win 8 since launch and was wondering if there is a fix yet? It happens on my 2 pc, my mothers laptop and a friends desktop, all with different hardware, 2 factory installs and 2x fresh installs
from untouched iso's.
It happens randomly when nothing is running on pc or sometimes when gaming or using apps and makes the desktop unresponsive for minutes at a time and sometimes crashes apps with it due to the system wide lag. Even ctrl alt deleting can take several
minutes for the menu to appear or even start Task Manager.
Ive managed to catch 1/2 the issue with procmon but due to taking so long for apps to launch while the lag happens i can only get the last 1/2 of the trace which shows a mix between a svchost, explorer.exe and wmiprvse.exe thrashing the system to a standstill
while accessing almost every file and reg key on the disk to over a million events recorded in procmon.
IS there a fix for this or a way to check the procmon trace to see exactly what service or task is causing the thrashing? I think whatever it is is buggy/broken, running at realtime and is blocking anything else from using the system until its done,
which lags the system.
Surely even an overloaded drive wouldnt cause other apps or the mouse to lag/hang so badly to the point of crashing and even Xp or Win 7 wouldnt lag/hang the desktop due to a busy drive.

In order to diagnose your problem you will need to download and install the below
Install the WPT (windows Performance Toolkit) http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/4847.install-the-windows-performance-toolkit-wpt.aspx ,
When you have open an elevated command prompt and type the following
WPRUI.exe (which is the windows performance recorder) and check off the boxes for the following
First level triage, CPU usage, Disk IO. If you problem is not CPU or HD then check off the relevant box/s as well (for example networking or registry)
Let it run for 60 secs or more and save the file (it will show you where it is being saved and what the file is called
Zip the file and upload to us on Onedrive (or any file sharing service) and give us a link to it in your next post.

System-wide lag spikes. Possible reasons?

Hi!
I have been having issues with my iMac for quite some time now and i have never really succeeded to figure out what might be causing it. The profromance of my iMac on regular basis is outstanding as I would expect it to be. How ever, every once in a while i would get an system-wide "lag spike". Everything would frzee for a second or two and the rainbow loading circle pointer would appear. During that time i cannot do absolutely anything besides move the mouse pointer.
This issue, I believe, started to take place after i replaced my HDD with SSDs. I have two raided OCZ Aggility 3 drives. I use the iMacs old HDD as an external storage. The old HDD has been formatted. Also i would like to point out that according to some standard SDD benchmarks i am not getting the performance one would expect from them.
Else than that, my iMac is mid 2010 2,8 ghz i5, i have 12gigs for 1333 DDR3 and im currently running on Mavericks, but i did have this issue on the previous versions as well.
This is my first post ever so please go easy on me. If you feel i havent written or explained enough please do let me know and i will see it corrected.

I am having a very slow system - from a very fast system

I am suffering from a system that is really slowing down and becoming almost unresponsive some of the time. From a previous post I have learned of EtreCheck and here is the report.
Any help is much appreciated.

Quicklook lagging & slow

i don't know when. but just these few days i notice my quick look slow down when I zoom it to full page, no matter it's a complex or just a simple text file.
it will still lag(slow refresh rate on the screen).
I don't have this before.
the last I did was update to 10.5.6 and installed smart scroll app.
any ideas?

Hello,
"the last I did was update to 10.5.6 and installed smart scroll app."
It helps to read the information about these updates before you install. An easy way to view this information is to run the Software Update from the Apple Menu/Software Updates. In the update window, there will be a link you can click to take you to that page. Here's the link for the 10.5.6 update: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3194
This update could have an adverse effect on 3rd party software. However, there is help here for SmartScroll: http://marcmoini.com/sxfaq_en.html
Very important; Always run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions before and after all software updates. Launch Disk Utility. Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select FirstAid, then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU when it's finished and reboot.

Installed OS X Maverick on Macs...having problems slower system and apps freezing

I installed and downloaded OS X Maverick last week and installed it in relatively new Macbook Pro and IMac...both purchased last year...have experienced applications freezing, slower start up time several times, once was unable to start my Macbook Pro...had to reboot..and slower system response...anyone else experiencing the same?

Checked to see how much space is available ??
Click your Apple menu  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage. Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.
As for slow startup, delete all apps in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items
Same for HD > Library > StartupItems
Anti virus software can slow your Macs down if installed.

Best IDE for slow system

what is the good IDE with drag and drop interface for slow system running on P3 500mhz ,ram256

I said relatively svelte. If Eclipse seemed slow, you'd shoot yourself in the head after trying to use TogetherSoft or TogetherJ or whatever the hell it's called. At one place I worked, where they wanted us all to use that IDE, I used to start the thing up, then leave to get a cup of coffee. I mean, I went downstairs, waited in line at the Starbucks, etc., and when I got back it still wasn't even finished starting up.
Later I learned that they didn't even check what IDEs we were using, so I just used vi. I also tried using Eclipse and it ran OK but I prefer vi.
I tend not to use IDEs much but when I've used Eclipse, it's always been pretty good, and it was never on the latest and greatest hardware.
So try it, and if it doesn't seem fast enough, use something else. I suggest vi.

DISC TOO SLOW/SYSTEM OVERLOAD

I have read a couple of other posts about this issue and tried their remedies with no success. Has anyone been able to figure this out or have any other remedies? This is getting bad. I play bacy my arrangement and keep getting this Disc too slow/system overload error. It just "came on" out of nowhere. Someone stated about possibly an update in itunes?????? Is there a way to 'uninstall" an update once you have installed it and go back to a previous version?Please help. This is annoying.
Tim

What can I say?
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24535
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3161
Also: install MenuMeters http://www.pure-mac.com/diag.html#mainmenu to keep an eye on other activities (esp. +memory swapping+ ) of your Mac/OS X (possibly disrupting Logic).
In Logic, before playback:
Disable all inputs on audio tracks.
Freeze/BIP your SI tracks.
Keep an audio- or aux track selected (or: avoid having a Softw Instrument track selected).
And:
Blame the dog.

I was getting support for my Office 2008 for Mac, and the support tech said my OS was very slow. I have latest update for Snow10.6.7. Question how can I speed up my Macbook?

I was getting support for my Office 2008 for Mac, and the support tech said my OS was very slow. I have latest update for Snow10.6.7. Question; How can I speed up my Macbook?

Hi
In the first instance, I'd use Onyx and run through its sequence of maintenance and tune up tools:
Verify, Maintenance, Cleaning.
I'd also reset the SMC and PRAM (Google them)
If that doesn't help then I'd look at System Preferences.. > Accounts > Login Items tab (not Login Options). Check what processes get started at login and decide which ones you don't want.
After that I'd use Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor to see if any processes are using a lot of computer power or if anything else nasty might be happening.
If none of this helped then my final step would be to reinstall OS X.

System-wide Transparent Proxy With URL Patterns

Internet censorship -where I live- has almost turned web unusable so I decided to setup a transparent proxy using Tor for my home network.
Since Tor is so slow -here- proxying all traffic through Tor would slow my connection to a crawl. Therefore I need a mechanism to selectively proxy the traffic.
I know a bit of 'iptables' and it looks to me like the solution to my problem. However there's a trick. As most of the websites I need to access through Tor (like Google+, Facebook and such) use several IP addresses for their entry points, it's almost impossible for me to add 'iptables' rules for all of those IP addresses. I need a mechanism to proxy the traffic based on URL patterns. For example I need to be able to proxy access to '*.facebook.com' through Tor.
So the question boils down to: how can I setup a system-wide transparent proxy using URL patterns?
Any idea/hint is much appreciated. TIA,
Bahman

Use privoxy with socks5 forwarding:

Suggestion: airtunes should be a system-wide "sound out" option.

instead of limiting itunes to using the airtunes option. shouldn't it be made an option in the "sound out" control panel? that would make sense... it should be easy to do as well...

Hi Pierre,
I believe the reason that its not a system wide option is that the sound is streamed to the Airtunes, and therefore there is a lag which would be problematic for watching movies, garageband or other apps which would require synching the sound to what you are doing or seeing on your computer.
I have heard a product called airfoil, but have no personal experience with using it.

S5000 4.4.2 OTA lag/slow system-wide, don't update!
