[SOLVED] Arch slower than Suse?

Hello all,
A few weeks ago I installed Arch over openSuse 11.2, because I liked the idea of Arch. I think OpenSuse is a great distro, I really liked it, but the rolling release model of Arch also sounds very good.
Now I have a working KDEmod desktop on top of Arch, and everything works. But in comparison with OpenSuse, it seems slower in everything. I can't really pinpoint what it is, top doesn't show strange processes or high values, the harddisk isn't constantly working. But for some reason all apps just start slower, the KDE-menu has a lag of a second for all items, firefox is slow on opening and displaying webpages.
On OpenSuse (11.2 with KDE) this wasn't a problem.
Is there a way to determine what is causing this slowness?
My hardware:
Asus laptop: Intel Pentium M 1700 Mhz
Memory: 1Gb
Nvidia Geforce Go 7300
I'm using KDEmod (KDE 4.4) on Arch.
Thanks in advance

Yeah, and on my box it breaks badly Hal. After an update nothing more was working because the hardware was not detected anymore
I removed KDE4.4, installed Gnome instead and til now it works perfectly (and quicker)...Tough I miss a little KDE4 which I found very eye candy...

Vim in Arch slower than in other distros

Under my arch system, the vim text editor is much slower than under any distro. I wonder why this is? May it be all the colorschemes I loaded?
May it be that the arch build is too big of a bundle? (w/gvim etc.)
I just want my fav. text editor to be as fast as it is under ubunutu:/
version number for ubuntu is: 7.1.56
version number foir arch is: 7.1.228
Please, if anyone have tips to speeding up my vim, please send me some hints

Hrmm... I use vim daily (if not hourly), but I don't find it to be any slower (or faster really) than on any other distro, including ubuntu and fedora. I would almost be willing to bet though, that due to the high number of dedicated vim users among the Arch developers, that vim is about as optimized as one would expect.
Also, as for as I can tell there are no GUI components (gvim) included with the standard vim build so I'm not sure where you found that info...I could be wrong, of course.
If you have a lot of customizations in your .vimrc and/or have lots of themes, I would definitely try to remove them temporarily and see if there's an increase in performance.

Hello,
If you're in a country where there's an apple shop (unfortunately not mine), go check it and ask the employee about it: he's gonna check your Iphone on a "device"
I've got an iphone 5 and it's working very well with me but I have to admit that its battery lasts (slower) than my Ipad 2.
Still i can help with some tips that may improve your iohone's battery by an hour in addition (hopefully):
- close all apps by multitasking....
- do NOT keep the brightness to the max
Believe me you're gonna regret changing your phone to a samsung
Hope i've helped and sorry for my bad english (has english as 3rd language)

[SOLVED] Too slow on 64-bit system

As I bought a 4g mem (a tot of 6g) I upgrade my arch to 64-bit, and it goes very very slow.
It takes several minutes (after download completed) to install some small software ( like vim ).
And top shows pacman used 97% cpu ( i5 M430 2 core 4 threads , a tot of 25%?).
Then I use vim to open a 100-line c file, it took about 5 seconds ( not only once! ).
It's much slower than my old 32-bit arch.
My new 64-bit windows has the same problem while the 32-bit windows goes well.
Would it be that 64-bit is supported but not well supported by my cpu? Or any solutions?
I don't know what information should be posted here.
If I should post any other information here, please tell me.

Try takeing out the new stick of ram... you say a total of 6GB, so I assume you also have a 2GB stick in there.... Then see if Arch is still slow.
I am like 99.9999999999% sure that the i5 CPU works fine with 64bit.
NOTE: They Hyper-Threading of the Core-i CPU's is not a linear increase in speed. Like for my:
>Ivy-Bridge moble i7 - Kernel 3.6.5-1-grsec - Hyper-Threading enabled
->/etc/makepkg.conf set to "-j2" (two threads)
It takes ~32min's to compile the Linux Kernel
->/etc/makepkg.conf set to "-j3" (three threads)
It takes ~27min's to compile the Linux Kernel
->/etc/makepkg.conf set to "-j4" (four threads)
It takes ~22min's to comple the Linux Kernel
> 100*(1-(22/32))
[1] 31.25
So, the Hyper-Threading gives my i7-3520M about 30% more speed. Which is good. I read that the Pentium 4HT only produced 20% more speed.

Mac OS internet 5x slower than Windows 7 on BootCamp

Alright, here is my problem...
My one and only computer is a mid 2010 iMac... I recently moved to a new place. Prior to me moving I was stuck with an awful 3Mbps download speed. (You can tell how much I hated it by looking at my username) Now that I moved, I am able to get much faster internet. So, I got a plan that offers up to 50Mbps download speeds (Xfinity Blast cable internet). I didn't want to rent my ISP's modem/router, so I purchased my own. I got a Motorola sbg6580. As soon as I got everything hooked up, it seemed perfect. I used speedtest.net to see what I was getting. I first tested on Windows 7. To my surprise, I was getting around 70Mbps. I then restarted my iMac into the Mac OS to do some speed tests. On the Mac OS, I was getting around 50-60Mbps. A bit slower than Windows 7, but still very good. The next day I decided to do a "real world" test. I downloaded a 1 Gigabyte file just to see how fast it was. Now, if I was getting 50Mbps the file should have taken just under 3 minutes to download. Instead, it took around 7 minutes. I figured it was maybe just the website I was downloading from. (the file I was downloading was the Cry Enginge SDK - http://www.crydev.net/ ) I did some research and discovered the website testmy.net - I am not sure if this is completely reliable or not, but every test I do on testmy.net I get around 10Mbps. At first I thought it was my ISP ripping me off, then I decided to do a testmy.net test on Windows 7 via BootCamp. (please note that on both Mac OSX and Windows 7 I did multiple tests over the coarse of multiple days) On Windows, I could instantly tell that the test was going much faster. The results for testmy.net on Windows 7 were 50-60Mbps. I did not completely trust the website, so I downloaded the same Cryengine SDK on Windows. It took around 3 minutes, just as it should have. I researched a bunch online trying to find info on this problem. I tried many "solutions" but none of them changed anything. (these include but are not limited to: Tried different DNS servers, Disabled ipv6, disabled sbg6580 firewall, disabled mac osx firewall, tried changing the wireless channel, and reset sbg6580. I came to the conclusion that it was the sbg6580. I thought that maybe an airport express would give me better results. So, today I bought an Airport express. With the sbg6580, I was able to disable the router features so it was just a modem. I was then able to set up the Airport express as my router. It fixed nothing. I am still getting the same results, Windows is still getting anywhere from 50-60Mbps while Mac OSX is getting around 10Mbps. I am out of ideas, if anyone could please help me that would be great. Also, if you need to know anything else please let me know. I may have missed something...
A quick note:
At my old house I had my iMac hooked up to a surge protector. For maximum internet performance, my iMac was connected to my router with an ethernet cable. During a bad storm one day, a lightning bolt either hit my house or very close to it. Ever since, my ethernet port has not worked. I have tried multiple eithernet cables as well as multiple routers and networks. I do not have the money for apple to completely replace my logic board. - So anyway, I am unable to test the performace with an eithernet cable.
Extra information:
My sbg6580 as well as my Airport extreme are both sitting on the same desk as my iMac, so it is obviously not a signal problem.
I also own both a iPod touch 5th gen and a iPad 2nd gen. I am getting around 20-30Mbps on both of them. I am not sure what would be a "good speed" on either of these, but I figured that was pretty good for a tablet and ipod.
The upload speeds on both windows 7 and Mac OSX are around the same 5-10Mbps.
I am using Google Chrome on both Windows 7 and Mac OSX but, I have also tried Firefox and Safari.

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, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in 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, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Signed applets load slower than javascript

I have a signed applet and i had problems with certifications but i solved them.
Now i have a new problem with the chat , it�s when the page is load, javascript tries to get some variables from the applet but it has�n load jet and javascript stops.
Is 1.5 slower than 1.4??
How can i solve it'??

In javascript you can use try and catch. When caught use setTimeout
var varOfTheApplet = null;
function callPublicMethodOfTheApplet(){
try{
        varOfTheApplet = document.getElementById("idOfMyApplet").publicMethod();
   }catch(e){
        setTimeout("callPublicMethodOfTheApplet();",500);
}

I google the issue and some people said to change/disable the line /etc/hosts ipv6 line ":: 1     localhost.localdomain........". I did that but still slow.
Can anyone suggest to speed it up like before.

10.5 is slower than OSX 10.4

When I'm on a particular credit card's web site with my PowerBook G4 running OSX 10.4.11 and Safari v3.1.2 the site runs briskly.
When I'm on that same site with my Intel MacBook Pro running OSX 10.5.5 and Safari v3.1.2 the site runs too slowly to use. The browser times out prior to my getting to the page I need. Same problem with the latest versions of FireFox, OmniWeb and iCab browsers on the MacBook Pro.
On each computer I'm using the same QualComm 3G wireless modem in the same location in my home. In this setting it seems OSX 10.5 is slower than OSX 10.4. Anyone know why and how to fix this?

Urgent: WAD performance is very slow than query performance

Hi,
If i execute the report(using query with variables) which contains 8,50,000 records in WAD then its taking more than 900 seconds and say Connection timed out at the end.
If i execute the same query in Query designer using Web browser then it will take 400 seconds to show all the data in hierarchy or tabular view.
I've done tuning using RSRT on query read mode and persistent mode etc..
Can you please help me?
THanks in advance. Points will be given...
Reg,
Varun

Varun,
Did you ever solve the performance issue of WAD report. We are having the same issue of WAD performance lot slower than executing just as a Query.
Thanks

New Mac Mini slower than my 4 years old iMac

My Intel iMac (20" display) four years old is out of order (I think the Power Supply was gone), and I bought the new entry level Mac Mini.
When I started using it I noticed that it's much slower in several tasks than my old iMac (when restarting, when opening applications, when working with an app with another appl in the background, etc. etc.). I was concerned about this, but then I asked some friends that have Mac minis and they said that it's normal.
Why? Why a computer with a new i5 Intel processor can be slower than a four years old iMac Core 2 Duo? Is it because of the slow drive (5200 rpm)? Or what is the explanation? If this is normal for the mini, I'll try to fix my old iMac as soon as possible.

Don't downgrade to Lion. For what it's worth, my experience with Lion and Mountain Lion has been almost the exact opposite than what CaptH reported: I find ML to be much faster and more reliable, both on my late-2012 Mini and my mid-2007 iMac.
Your perceived speed issues are almost certainly a result of the slower-spinning hard drive in the Mini as Shootist007 pointed out earlier. Go ahead and disable Spotlight if you want to, but once the indexing is complete (which can take a few hours – or even a few days if you have a lot of data) it shouldn't be a problem unless you are continually connecting different large external drives.
Get the latest Combo Updater and install that. If you have some minor OS issue, that should solve it. Do a normal Software Update / check the Mac App Store for updates after you install the Combo Updater. Get it here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1640
If you continue to be bugged by the slower speed, see if your local Apple Store will allow you to exchange it and a little extra money for an equivalent model with a Fusion Drive. Or go to Other World Computing and purchase their kit to add a second drive, and use it to add an SSD in the second drive bay:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/DIYIMM11D2/
http://eshop.macsales.com/search/OWC.INSTANT.481.2
Also, RAM is super-duper-uber-cheap right now. If your Mini has only the stock 4gb of RAM, you might be pleasantly surprised by the improved performance by doubling that. I have 16gb in my Mini, it cost me well less than a hundred bucks, and it makes everything better including graphics performance. But if you don't do something to work around that slow 5400rpm hard drive, it will always be the bottleneck in your system.

Got fibre today, far slower than estimated

I upgraded from standard BT Broadband to Fibre, and my estimated speeds that were given to me were between 11-18Mbps for download and 0.8-1.3Mbps for upload. It was activated about 7 hours ago and I am getting the upload speed perfectly fine right now, though as you can see my current download speed is about 3Mbps. I was wondering if I had to wait a while/few days for the speed to increase to the estimates? The speed I have now is really no better than my standard ADSL was.
EDIT: I should point out that my line was recently fixed by an engineer as there was a problem with the landline ringing incorrectly and my old broadband was being even slower than usual.

How to solve the SLOW wifi connection on iOS 8?

Recently I have started to have problems with my Wi-Fi connection on my iPhone 4S - iOS 8.0.2
This problem started 3 days ago or less, before, my Wi-Fi connection on my iPhone was PERFECT! Now it is soooooo slow, even slower than my 3G connection...
What can I do to solve this? I haven't dropped it or nothing, the problem just appeared from nowhere.

Have either of you tried a Reset Settings yet? (Settings App -> General -> Reset -> Reset All Settings NOT Erase All Content and Settings.) You could also try just the "Reset Network Settings" first too. Resetting settings will purge your lock screen and wallpaper, and probably some other things that will be annoying for a bit (like turning back on the keyboard clicking sound,) but it seemed to help my problems.
I work on iPhone problems all day (mostly backup and restore right now), so I collect a lot of the debugging logs. I saw a lot of networking error garbage on my 5S right after upgrading from iOS7 that was vastly reduced after doing a reset all settings (I wish I would have tried just Reset Network Settings first, so I knew if that worked alone.)
If that still doesn't help, I would love to take a look at your phone debug logs (like I said, I do iPhone troubleshooting all day, so investigating and hopefully fixing a serious problem sounds exciting to me ) If you want, you can contact me through my company's webpage: http://deciphertools.com/support.html and we can start looking at what kind of errors are happening while the wifi is acting up. You can mention my name directly, Kelly, so you know the message gets to me! (This is an open invitation to anyone having serious wifi problems after the update, not just mendoSYK and tragic330.)
(Note: As I mentioned, the link I am posting is to my company's website. So, I stand to benefit, financially or otherwise, from the link I am providing.)

When opening firefox there is briefly a blue screen, this then disappears and my home page opens. However firefox seems to run slower than normal, what could be the cause?

Blue screen briefly appears then the home page loads. Have run a virus scan which only found ad cookies. Speed of loading is slower than normal

Possible answer to LR 2.6 & 2.7 Seeming to run slower than earlier versions

I just downloaded and unpgraded from LR 2.6 to 2.7 on a Windows Vista 64-bit machine. Version 2.6 seemed to run a lot slower than 2.5. When I read the LR2.7 readme file on the download page I noticed one of the known issues is that at least ver. 2.7 runs slower when there are lots of files in the recycle bin. after I upgraded I emptied the recycle bin (Of almost 3000 files), and yes indeed performance did improve - dramatically. This also improved performance on LR 3 Beta 2.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have tried each idea in the order suggested. Unfortunately I have not yet solved the problem. In some circumstances, with certain paper profiles and no other color management in place, I get faulty prints but they have large areas of solid color in areas where there is a large amounts of color saturation in the original image. The faulty image below is printed to plain letter-sized paper ar Normal Quality. One clarification I wish to make is that my HP printer driver was not specifically a 64-bit driver, but rather 32-bit/64-bit driver compatable for Win 7.
I may try completely uninstalling LR before reinstalling, instead of a "repair-install" but I am still open to other suggestions.
