Slow Bridge after Mavericks
After the upgrade of mavericks..i get the idea, that bridge lost his cache..
very very slow...i did several things, restarting, upgrading the cache...given it more memory...etc..
But still very slow, every folder must build from zero...
Someone else with the same problem?
I'm working with Bridge 5
grt
I am constantly amazed that users will jump to the latest OS without waiting for the bugs to clear. Not that this is a bug, but many seen on the PS forum.
Have never updated OS mid-stream but first thought would be that there should be no effect on cache. Unless you wiped the drive and did a clean install.
If you have large files and have HQ thumbs, and 100% previews checked that can take a long time.
Check free disk space. You should have 10% minimium, but more like 20% for smooth operation.

Very slow internet after Mavericks update. Opening websites very slow. Console info here. 9/25/14 11:12:51.416 AM com.apple.launchd[1]: (com.apple.qtkitserver[22059]) Could not terminate job: 3: No such process 9/25/14 11:12:51.416 AM com.apple.launc
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -
Mac slow down after Mavericks installation
I have realized that I am not the first with the same problem after the installation of Mavericks.
I run etrecheck as have been already advised many users.
Below are the results.
Can you please help me further? My mac is really slow. Applications, like email quit unexpectadly.
Thank you in advance.

517 MB Page-outsYou have been up for ~17 days, and you have 1.72GB of pageouts. That averages out to one page every 3 seconds, and we will assume you re not working 24/7, so when you are using your Mac you are spending a lot of time paging to disk. Disks are slow.
As Kappy says, you are either concurrently running too may RAM hungry apps, or you have some apps that really want lots of RAM and you are running them a lot day after day. Either "Stop That!", or get more RAM.
You could also consider a Solid State Disk, but that is not as good as having real RAM and would be more expensive than RAM unless you Mac is max'ed out on RAM. Of course you could do both. More RAM and an SSD
If you want to see the paging for yourself, start an Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal session, and run the command:
sar -g 60 100
which will report the pageout stats every minute for 100 minutes (adjust the numbers to suit your tastes).
Now use your Mac as your normally would, including the times when it is running slow. After you have experienced the slowness, go back and look at the 'sar' output. If you have mostly zeros with maybe a trivial blip every once in awhile, that is noise and not a paging issue. If you have some high numbers, then you are paging heavily at that time. If you have sustained paging, even if small value, it is going to affect your performance. High numbers will affect your performance even more. -
Slow down after Mavericks Installation-can you check my EtreCheck?
I'm not sure which one of my old programs is slowing me down. Applications and new windows open more slowly and are more likely to freeze. Could someone point me in the right direction?

System slowed down after Mavericks update (10GB RAM)
Hi,
I have recently updated to Maverics on my mac pro, 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 10GB RAM.
When I perform regular tasks it's all normal. Unfortunately I do some much more than that. I use Aperture on a daily basis and it seems to have slowed down a bit. The issue is more apparent when I use Final Cut. I can't have any other design/photography/video software on the background anymore. My computer can't deal with. But it could before Mavericks! It will also complain about not enough memory when rendering...
I understand that kernel task is heavy on the memory and after an EtreCheck I also realised how much memory spotilight is using. I already excluded a lot of items from spotlight, and it's way better, but still, why is my computer so slow?
Please can someone look at my check and tell me if there's anything I can do to boost my system back to it's previous glory?
thank you

About memory management in OSX 10.9 Mavericks
Memory is managed differently, and more efficiently in 10.9. It is (mostly) unique in the industry, but may become trend.
Let’s start with the basics. Mechanical disk drives are very slow, with access speeds in the 10s of milliseconds and transfer rates in the 200-400 Mbps range real world. SSDs are much faster, on the order of a couple of ms access and typically 1200-3000 mbps transfer rates. RAM is much faster than either, in the nanosecond access and transfer speeds of ~8 Gbps effective (1 GHz x 8 bits/byte).
These are rough numbers for comparison purposes only.
So the goal is to keep as much in RAM as possible. But if you run out of RAM what do you do?
Traditionally you take the least used RAM and write it to a special part of the disk, in a way that you can access it most efficiently - minimizing the disk delays. This is called a swap file because you swap RAM in and out of it.
10.9 has a new trick: it compresses RAM using the main processors. Rather than swapping stuff to disk (disks are slow), it actually uses the processor to compress memory and make, for example, 1 GB of physical RAM hold as much as 1.5GB. Similar approaches are used to make MP3 files 10x smaller than the real thing - there is redundancy in data and you can take advantage of that. Apple is making the following calculation: the processors can compress way faster than the disk can swap. And its also predicting that the processors are often partly idle - waiting for swap files or disk access. So rather than swap files around, its compresses the files ***in RAM***.
Compression works,. Tests show that on average it is faster, and that 4GB (i have 4 GB RAM) acts like 5 1/2 - 6GB. Wow.
So, 10.9 will load up most of your RAM, knowing that it can compress some when it needs to. So don’t worry too much that it may look like all your RAM is taken - yea, it is, but its OK.
The measures to look at are:
1. amount compressed. Compression means it has run out of RAM and needs more. As long as compression is low this is fine. In fact this is how 10.9 uses RAM more efficiently than 10.6,7 or 8. Contrary to common wisdom, it requires LESS RAM than 10.8. The colored indicator tells you who this is going - green (good), yellow( iffy) and red (bad).
2. amount swapped. Once it cannot compress any further, or can’t do so efficiently, jot begins old-fashioned swapping. This is a major slow-down and means you would benefit from more RAM. Tiny amounts are OK.
here's an article by Apple - but on th pre-10.9 memory management techniques....mostly still true, but read on.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1342?viewlocale=en_US
Bottom line - compression makes 10.9 use RAM more efficiently than previous OSX versions. It also makes the “ram used” indicator less meaningful, and mans you should monitor “compression” .
That said, RAM has always been one of the most cost effective upgrades possible. People spend too much on new machines and too little on more RAM.
Hope this helps,

Slow startup after Mavericks update in MacBook Pro (MD102HN/A)
After the Mavericks update, my MacBook seems to lag at startup, starts really slowly. Especially when the lock screen is about to appear and the Apple logo kind of slides upwards. Does anyone else face the same problem or is it just me? The slide always lags!
Remove all items in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items
Same for /Library/StartupItems
Then restart your Mac to test.
And check to make sure there's enough free disk space.
Click your Apple menu icon 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. Less can slow your Mac down.
If nothing above helped, the startup disk may need repairing ...
Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If DU reports errors, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to access the built in utilities in OS X Recovery to repair the startup disk.
Make sure to back up all important data first before using OS X Recovery. -
Mac slowed down after Maverick installation
On my 4 year old iMac, after installation of new OP Maverick......very, very slow...though could be to very slow Internet connection via "Clear"
SuggestionsHello DennisBoyd68,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
If your Mac runs slowly
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10798
An app you’re using may require more memory than your computer has. To see how much memory your computer has, choose Apple menu > About This Mac.
Your computer’s startup disk may not have enough free disk space. To make disk space available, you can move files to another disk and then delete files you no longer need on the startup disk.Increase disk space
Quit any apps you’re not using.
If none of these suggestions work, you may need to repair your computer’s disk in Disk Utility.Repair a disk
Best of luck,
Mario -
Hello guys.
Like many of Mavericks's user, I'm experiencing some problems in OS boot, such as slow boot or even a freeze, that I've never experienced before. I've read a post that someone teaching how to show errors, if there is any, by typing this code line into Terminal:
syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'Channel t|GPU D|I/O|find tok|n Cause: -' | tail | open -ef
After typing that this error has appeared into the TextEdit: Dec 1 20:48:50 b12058e8 kernel[0] <Debug>: disk0s2: I/O error.
Does anybody knows what it means? It indicates a possible problem in my HDD?
My computer is a:
MACBOOK PRO
15-inch, Late 2011
Processor 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
Serial Number C0*******V7L
Software OS X 10.9 (13A603)
Thanks
<Personal Information Edited by Host>The disk drive may be corrupted or has failed. Backup all your files, then try this:
Install or Reinstall Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
because it is three times faster than wireless. -
Slow Mac after Mavericks Upgrade
So this has been brought up multiple times in this community, but I wanted to give it a shot with my specific info. I have attached my EtreCheck results for more info about my system. I downloaded Mavericks right when it came out, and I have been struggling with this macbook ever since. Many times it will take between 3-5 minutes to simply open an application like Mail or Safari, and when I restart the computer the problems never seem to subside. I have reset the SMC multiple times. The first reset I did, it seemed to fix the problem, but that only lasted for a few hours. After that, no reset has done anything at all. I'm thinking about upgrading my RAM to 8 GB, but I want to make sure that will actually fix the problem before I shell out the cash for that, and I was told to come here to see if anybody had any ideas. Additionally, when I look at the hard drive storage, it is indicating I have 16 GB of movies, which I know is not the case so I'm not really sure what is going on there, or maybe that is the problem. I have a windows partition that is completely filled, and have also thought about deleting the partiiton if that would alleviate some of the problems. Thanks for reading this and any help you can provide!!

Back up your documents and everything else important to you, not that there is any reason to believe your hard disk may be failing, but the symptoms you describe may presage an impending disk failure, and you should have backups anyway.
Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
If you have a backup that you created prior to using CleanMyMac, now is the time to use it. For Time Machine, boot OS X Recovery, and at the Mac OS X Utilities screen, choose Restore from Time Machine Backup. Choose a date preceding the installation of CleanMyMac.
If you do not have a backup, create one now, verify that it is a viable backup of your essential software and files, then erase your Mac completely, reinstall OS X and your essential software. When you reinstall your essential software, you must do so from their original sources, not from a backup that may have been corrupted.
Using CleanMyMac2 to remove files and components of files it considers "junk" will corrupt a Mac. Nothing less than erasing your Mac and rebuilding it from the ground up will undo the effects of having used it, and its developer's instructions for uninstalling it are not completely effective. I know no other way to recover from having used it other than these recommendations. -
All apps slowed down after Mavericks upgrade.
As a non techie senior I approached the upgrade to Mavericks from OS 6 with trepidation , knowing many apps would be incompatible. An accidental sun with iCloud removed all my iTunes . I recovered them from the Time machine. The WI FI network link intermittently goes out. (not sure this is related).The important ones all work, but loading of all Applications including this page) is much slower, especially web page loading. Hearing about others with similar issues, I attached an EtreCheck report. Any help would be appreciated.

I tried for a few days to work on it, but have not gotten very far. Thanks,As a non techie senior I approached the upgrade to Mavericks from OS 6 with trepidation , knowing many apps would be incompatible. An accidental sun with iCloud removed all my iTunes . I recovered them from the Time machine. The WI FI network link intermittently goes out. (not sure this is related).The important ones all work, but loading of all Applications including this page) is much slower, especially web page loading. Hearing about others with similar issues, I attached an EtreCheck report. Any help would be appreciated.

Slower performance after Mavericks upgrade
My Macbook Pro has been significantly slowed down by my upgrade to Mavericks. (Processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7) (Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3) (Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB) I can't watch a 2 minute video without long... long rendering pauses. I get error messages and find the computer quits and starts again at random moments. Loading apps is slower. I am not talented technically and need some layman version of how to use time machine or other backup info to go back to my Mountain Lion IOS or how to fix this deterioration of my computer performance. I have run the etresoft app to provide more info. Unfortunately I am very much a novice at problem solving computer issues so if this is above my paygrade please feel free to send me to more competent sources..

0 B Page-outsDo you know the reason for using WiFi Utility? It is not part of OS X and may be contributing to the problem.
Assuming you have no reason to use it:
Navigate to the following folder by selecting the entire line (triple-click to select it), then control-click, and from the contextual menu that appears, select Services > Open:
/System/Library/StartupItems/
Find the file WiFiUtilityStartUp and drag it to the Desktop. You will need to authenticate.
Next: Open System Preferences by selecting it from the (Apple) menu, then select Users & Groups. Click the lock icon and authenticate, then click your User account. Select the Login Items tab, then select the item WirelessUtility. Delete it with the "–" (minus) button.
Next: Backup Engine is not part of OS X either, and is unrelated to Time Machine, which you are using. It may have been installed as part of a utility supplied by Seagate or other hard disk manufacturer. Such utilities should not be used on Macs. If you have no reason to use Backup Engine, delete it as well using the "–" button.
Quit System Preferences, log out, and log in again. Reply with your results. -
Another slow mac after Mavericks...
Hi, I know I need more memory for sure, but could you please advise whether that will most likely fix my slow mac based on my EtreCheck? My concern is investing in old laptop if that will not solve and I should better off think of a brand new. Thanks in advance for your help. Cheers!

Slow Imac after Maverick Update

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.
If that does not help then see this tread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24057011#24057011 -
Slow computer after Mavericks upgrade
A while ago I had to update my Mac to OS X Mavericks (Version 10.9.5), but I experience that this has made my computer slow. It is slow when starting, when I use the internet, when I search files on the computer etc. Not incredibly slow, just annoyingly slow.
I had to do the upgrade to Mavericks to be able to run a program I use frequently.
I have a lot of free storage: 526 Gb free (out of 749 Gb).
Now I wonder if there is anything I can do to make the computer faster? Should I upgrade to Yosemite - or should I definitely not do that?
I'd appreciate very much if there is any good advice out there.
My computer is a MackBook Pro (15-inch) from mid 2012.
