Safari starts very slowly

I am running Panther (10.3.9) with the latest updates. PowerBook G4 1GHz with 512MB RAM. Lately I've noticed that Safari takes a long time to start, i.e. the Safari icon bounces 30-40 times (~1 min.?) before it starts, whereas before it only bounces 3-4 times (within seconds). It simply takes a long time but nothing really has changed on this machine. I tried emptying the cache on all accounts and this hasn't helped. What gives?

Looks like I solved the problem. I turned off Airport, shut the computer down. I was going to try using the built-in ethernet port to see if it has anything to do with Airport itself (since Mail was having the same problem too). Turns out I didn't configure my ISP settings for the ethernet port, so I turned back on airport to retrieve the settings from the ISP's website. Low and behold, Safari starts almost instantly. Mail is back to normal speed now too.
It was the turn off and on of airport plus the system shutdown that fixed it. Don't know which worked but thanks for the tips.

SQL Developers started very slowly.
I install SQL Developer 3 (no JDK included) and I am using it.
Now both SQL Developers – 2.1.1 and 3 are starting slowly. I tried to change JRE by Java Console with no result.
Any other application has no such problem.

There are lots of things that could be the source of this...let's try a few things:
First, (assuming you have already tried a restart - if not, do that) quit all the applications you can (try going to Force Quit and checking there too), and find your Activity Viewer application (Spotlight search for it is the easiest thing to do but it's in Applications) and launch that. Select all processes, and then look around to see what the % load on the CPU is - Activity Viewer might be using %5 and everything else will be less, for a total load of 10-20% or so. If that's not true look around and see what is using a lot of CPU.
Next, look at memory use...you should have at least 10%, preferably more like 20% "Free". Too many applications open can use up memory capacity.
If the computer still seems slow, test internet speed; my favorite is speakeasy.net/speedtest but there are several others. There's some possibility your ISP is limiting speed. The speed test will tell you if you're actually getting what you pay for, but without knowing what service you have, I can't say what "normal" might be. If that doesn't seem right, you need to speak with your ISP.
Try those and let us know how the results come out; not much the rest of us can do without a little more in the facts-and-data category.

I've narrowed my problem down by chopping pieces of code until it works, and I think I have it narrowed down to the code that uses FlexGraphing but need to check a bit more...
It's odd that it works in Flex3 builder though, and there are no errors when I run in as AIR. In fact, the app RUNS, since it is in the task manager, but it won't appear.

[SOLVED?] OpenGL apps start very slowly..

Edit: After running a system update today and rebooting for a different reason everything seems to work again, guess it was a bad package? Strangely, I'm pretty sure the packages that updated were not related to the problem (Just mpd, ncmpc, wine, and orc). Oh well.
I have an odd problem with OpenGL applications opening very slowly on my laptop. All other applications seem to work fine. My first thought was maybe direct rendering wasn't on, but it is. Oddly even to check that takes a while to run as seen below:
[jamie@JPC ~]$ time glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes
GL_EXT_Cg_shader, GL_EXT_depth_bounds_test, GL_EXT_direct_state_access,
real 1m23.231s
user 1m23.068s
sys 0m0.103s
Strangely once the program actually opens it seems to run fine as evidenced by glxgears:
[jamie@JPC ~]$ glxgears
16753 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3350.586 FPS
17516 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3503.158 FPS
17828 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3565.519 FPS
17751 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3550.056 FPS
I had this problem a few weeks ago as well, but I somehow resolved it with just some tinkering with some conf files. Unfortunately, I can't seem to fix the issue again.
I noticed this in the FAQ, but it doesn't seem to be my issue (Mainly pointing it out to avoid it as a suggestion). http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/FAQ … _at_all.21

Repairing permissions isn't going to help. If you were having any disk based problem you would want to repair the hard drive, not permissions.
Try a couple of things:
1. Boot into Safe Mode by restarting the computer and after the chime press and hold down the SHIFT key until the startup screen appears (gray screen with dark gray Apple logo and spinning gear) then release SHIFT key. You will get a login window that should say Safe Mode. Run Pages without any other software except Activity Monitor and see what happens.
2. Create a new user account and log out of your normal account and log into the new user account. Do the same as above and see what happens.
This will help determine if you may have a problem with some third-party item that isn't loaded when in safe mode or if you have a preference file, logfile, or cachefile problem when in the new user account.

Safari loading very slowly - Firefox loads immediately

I have seen a few postings about Safari loading slowly since the upgrade to Yosemite but this is really starting to aggravate me now. I am having no problem whatsoever when loading the same pages in Firefox - which in fact is how I am having to write this posting.
Is ti just me?
Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Linc
While I was aware of this posting I have my concerns about whether it is applicable in this case. It relates to Safari 5.0.1 or later - the latest version of Safari in Yosemite is 8.0 and I have not experienced any noticeable problems until the last few days - although the posting states that last amendments were made only 3 weeks ago its level of detail re Windows and referring to such an old version of Safari lead me to think it is quite a few years since it was written. Why has it suddenly happened? Why does Safari carry out DNS pre-fetching in the first place? What functionality am I losing by disabling it? If Apple are aware of this issue (and if they are not then how is it going to be fixed?) and they fix it in an update then how will I know it has been fixed? Will it be incumbent upon me to re-enable DNS pre-fetching to regain whatever functionality I lost when turning it off?
Sorry to ask all these questions but I hope you can see where I am coming from.

Tabs in Safari close very slowly.

Closing tabs in Safari is painfully slow. This problem happens intermittently, with no discernable pattern. It is unaffected by the number of tabs that I have open. It occurs whether I press cmd+T, or whether I close a tab using the mouse.
Closing one tab takes ~4 seconds. There is 1.5 seconds where Safari is unresponsive and my cursor remains an arrow. Then my cursor becomes the "pinwheel" for ~3 seconds, and finally the tab closes and I am back in action. The rest of the OS remains responsive during these 4 seconds.
Any ideas for what I can do? It is absolutely infuriating. It's been going on for many months, and I ended up re-installing OS X, but the problem persists! I have done some searching, but haven't seen anybody else online with this problem.
Very many thanks.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
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. 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. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a few minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. 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.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. 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 (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. 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.
10. 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 the results. No harm will be done.
11. 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.
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.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: 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 MacBook Pro is brand new but very slow. So disappointing. Why is it starting very slowly?

My Macbook Pro 13' is brand new however, it does not serve me well compared to my old compaq laptop. It is so annoying and disppointing. I am also a new user of Mac than Windows. There's something going on especially when I am to start up my Mac, it takes so long. Very embarrasing even. Plus, I thought of adding a mcaffee anti-virus thinking it will solve any problem but it gotten worse. Nothing so disppointing like Macbook PRO! can't even uninstall completely the anti-virus. Can someone please assist a beginner in Mac like me? Thank you.

Safari Booting Very Slowly....

For some reason Safari has been taking an ususually long time to turn on. Before this started happening, the icon would bounce 2 or 3 times in the dock and then it would be on. Now it bounces for perhaps 30 seconds and when it does turn on, it lags for a minute or so. I've noticed that Adium (MSN/iChat combo) does this as well. For that matter, it seems to be getting worse in regards to everything.
Please help!
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Hello Kyle:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Do you have at least 10% of your HD free? If other applications are behaving in the same fashion, you have a problem that is not specific to Safari.
Run the hardware checker that came with your system to see if anything pops up.

Cap5 starts very slowly

Hello all!
I have a very irritating problem when I (try) to open Captivate 5. At the moment it takes more than 10 minutes before I see the welcome screen and again some minutes before I can open or start a project. At 1 of 3 times it doesn't open at all. If I look at the task manager it of course uses more than 130 mb RAM but nothing happens.
But if I open Captivate in an offline mode (I just close the network connection) I can start using cap within 20 seconds. So I think the network connection or more the proxy and/or firewall blocks some communication with the adobe server (?). Due to the company policy I cannot modify any settings of firewall or proxy. Does anyone knows a workaround for this (except closing the network connection before each startup)?
All others parts of the elearning suite are working well, it's only Captivate. Machine information: WinXP, 2GB DualCore, 4 GB RAM, elearning suite 2.
I really appreciate any hint on this.
Many thanks,
Marco

Hi,
after nearly one week working only on local files Captivate starts much faster. Now it takes only 1 minute; that's ok for me.
Many thanks for your tip.
Best regards,
Marco

Server0 starts very slowly in PI 7.11 in Win 2008 / SQL 2008 MSCS config

Hi all.
I have a problem in our newly installed PI 7.11 system on Windows Server 2008 and MS SQL 2008 MSCS setup. The J2EE application server on the node where the SCS is running, takes about 1 hour to start. About 20 minutes after starting, it goes from starting framework to starting apps, and then remains in that status for another 40-50 minutes. I am unable to find anything in the log files that can explain this behaviour. The J2EE app server on the second cluster nodes starts within 5-6 minutes. If I fail over the SAP Cluster Group to the second node, the situation is reversed.
We are using the latest 7.11 kernel and the latest available SPS.
Has anyone experiences something similar?
Regards,
Thomas

Hi.
Thanks for your input!
I found this document [Process Integration (PI) Performance Check - Analyzing Performance Problems and Possible Solution Strategies|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f0b96675-87cf-2c10-b489-dee0ac03f782?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true].
I also remembered having read somewhere that the VMC should be turned off for PI. So I set the parameter vmcj/enable = off. If this really did the trick or not, I cannot guarantee, but now my server0 processes starts normally.

Thomas

Managed server start very slowly

Hi All,
We are currently facing issues in starting a managed weblogic server.
We have 2 machines, say MAC1 and MAC2.
MAC1 contains the admin server and 5 managed servers.
MAC2 contains only 5 managed servers with the same name as that of the 5 managed servers which are on MAC1.
We faced some issues starting the managed servers on MAC2.
So we decided to use pack and unpack.
We were able to start the managed servers on MAC2 however each server tooks about 25 minutes to start.
This is some what unexpected behaviour.
I had a look at the logs of one of the managed server.
It appears that its waits most of its time on :
<Log Management> <BEA-170019> <The server log file xyz.log is opened. All server side log events will be written to this file.>
The next log after this appears after about 20 minutes.
So i feel that its stuck reading or writing the logs.
Any pointers!!
Regards,
Stacey.

Portal starts very slowly

I have 800MB of HTML+DOC+PDF files.
I tried 2 senarios.
A. place a webapp with the above files in a directory and start
WLS6.1sp1, the server started within 2 mins.
B. place a webapp with the above files in a directory and start stockportal
WLS6.1sp1 + wlp 4.0 , the server started within 30 mins.
Question:
How can I make my startup faster?
Thanks,

Terry,
You should post this to the general WLS groups as it is not a portal issue.
Try weblogic.developer.interest.application.deployment), perhaps someone
there can help. I don't have much experience with sites with 800 MB of
static pages. ;-)
Sincerely,
Daniel Selman

We have already written a large bundle of application on wlp4.0 already.We cannot
afford to migrate everything to wls7.0 and perform regression again withour project
schedule and budget.
Can you tell me any method to config wlp4.0 to turn off the 'loading of800MB
static pages' so as to make the start time faster(about 5 min)?

I 'search' in the wls6.1 doc and cannot find the word 'nostage'.
I pressed portalDomain->Deployments -> portal ->Configuration and
cannot
see
the word 'stage'.
Which part of the wls admin console can i turn off the 'stage' feature?
Thanks,
"Daniel Selman" <[email protected]> wrote:
Terry,
There is probably a difference in the deployment strategy between
the
two
applications/WLS versions. In the console you can choose between
"stage"
and
"no stage", if you chose the "stage" option then WLS will copy yourentire
application into a staging directory before it is deployed. In 7.0you
can
also toggle between two-phase deployment and the 6.x deployment mode.
Please refer to the WLS documentation for details.

Can not understand.
Thank for help.

what are the hardware specifications on the server? When application servers and process schedulers run on the same machine, application servers consume more ram on the server to run the application, process schedulers may not had enough memory to run and wait for application servers on that.
Having AS and PS on the same box is not a good design. usually PS is made on the db box (or) AS and PS go separately on different boxes.
if you can move PS onto a different box, ur performance will grow in a big way.
Thanks!
