Suddenly, Slow Browsing
I've had some issues lately.
Right now though I'm trying to isolate a problem I'm having browsing. Sometimes it just takes forever for pages to load and it hasn't been that way before.
I replaced my router with a Belkin Wireless N and I've spoken to tech support for Belkin and my ISP. Neither could detect any problem.
I've just been doing speed tests with Speakeasy while pages slowwwwwly load in another browser window, and the tests are always in the mid-8s to 9s for download and mid 3s to 4s for upload speed.
I have tried using Firefox but that is also slow, though seemingly not as bad as Safari.
My computer has also crashed multiple times over the last few days - before and after switching out the router - during network diagnostics, or even when I pull down the wireless list from the toolbar.
Does any of this ring any bells? My computer is old and I'm starting to think it's an internal problem. It's so hard to tell though because of the other "moving parts" in the system. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Try this:
Do you have enough RAM? Less than 1GB can cause slowness. Is your hard drive too full? Less than 15%, or 15GB, of free space can also cause slowness.
Adding DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security:
If you are using a single computer: Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2296
If your computer is part of a network: please refer to this page: http://www.opendns.com/start/bestpractices/#yournetwork and follow the advice given.
(An explanation of why using Open DNS is both safe and a good idea can be read here: http://www.labnol.org/internet/tools/opendsn-what-is-opendns-why-required-2/2587 /
Open DNS also provides an anti-phishing feature: http://www.opendns.com/solutions/homenetwork/anti-phishing/ )
Wikipedia also has an interesting article about Open DNS:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDNS
Whilst in System Preferences/Network you should also turn off 'IPv6' in your preference pane, as otherwise you may not get the full speed benefit (the DNS resolver will default to making SRV queries). If you want to know what IPv6 is:
This is Apple's guidance on iPv6:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8708.html
Click on Apply Now and close the window.
Restart Safari, and repair permissions.
If that didn't do it, then try this as well:
Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
form values
download.plist
Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
com.apple.Safari.plist
Repair permissions (in Disk Utility).
Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.

Problem description:
Mac suddenly slowed down, especially when using Safari - spinning ball of death, pages won’t load, etc. Hard drive appeared to get “stuck” causing overheating and had trouble even shutting down with the button, and then wouldn’t reboot for about an hour.

We hooked up the external HD, turned on Time Machine, and everything backed up.
Then we ran Disk Utility. The disk repair required the reboot thing and took two tries. Then repaired permissions. Also updated Flash.
Seems to be running okay now, but we have ordered a new SSD (as well as a new iMac 5k ). We use multiple computers so hoping we can get a couple more years of use out of this old computer as it ran fast and fine until this problem.
Thank you so much for your help! We really appreciate it. -
Hi all, my mac's suddenly slowed down significantly - can anyone help?
Hi there, a couple of weeks ago my mac suddenly slowed down significantly. Since then I've installed the new operating system and that's helped a little but it's still not running as it should.
Here's my EtreCheck report. Any ideas you clever people?

Slow browsing, timeouts and pages failing to load
Hi,
Over the last few days we've been having browsing issues on multiple devices where pages are taking forever to load if at all. We're sometimes having to refresh the browser 3 or 4 times to get a page to load correctly.
Sites like speedtest, once I've got it to load show low ping speeds and the Upload / Download speeds are what I would expect on our line. I've rebooted the router and modem but this hasn't resolved the problem.
Please advise.
Regards
Neil.Hi i would just like to add to this as i have been having the exact same issues in the last around 5 days, if i look at my speeds on speedtest they are as good as they usually are but problems with not loading pages instantly disconnections from certain services but not others for as little as 5 seconds and general slow browsing has started to become incredibly annoying especially when it seems to come out of nowhere.

10.7.5 suddenly slows and then freezes
My computer has just started to suddenly slow way down and then it freezes completely. When I reboot it seems fine, for perhaps 10 minutes or half an hour, but then it starts to lock up again. Any idea what the problem is? Here is my EtreCheck report:

Apr 6, 2015, 09:14:29 AM /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/Kernel_2015-04-06-091429_[redacted].panic [Click for details]Well, I made it to the Apple store and they, contrary to the guys at B&H, confirmed my original suspicion and yours: that the drive was failing. I bought a replacement drive and am restoring my time machine back up now.
I am a bit annoyed that the B&H guys got this one wrong but I have to give them credit for underselling me rather than overselling me; I do appreciate that.
Also worth mentioning is that the 3TB Seagate drive was less than 2 years old and is supposedly still under warrantee. I am looking forward to seeing what kind of support I get from them.
So big thanks to you, Bob, for your very good suggestions. The Apple community has come through strong for me and I appreciate it. -
I am having slow page load on one of my laptops connected wirelessly. One laptop runs vista home and seems to work fine. The other runs XP professional and is slow browsing and loading web pages. The XP laptop seems fine when connected to the wired connection but slow connected wireless. Any suggestions? TIA.
There are many causes for poor wireless connections, and many solutions:
First of all, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your computer find and lock on to your router's signal.
Next, download and install the latest driver for your wireless card.
If the above does not fix the problem, then proceed:
Poor wireless connections are often caused by radio interference from other 2.4 GHz devices. This includes wireless phones, wireless baby monitors, microwave ovens, wireless mice and keyboards, wireless speakers, and your neighbor's wireless network. In rare cases, Bluetooth devices can interfere. Even some 5+ GHz phones also use the 2.4 Ghz band. Unplug these devices, and see if that corrects your problem.
In your router, try a different channel. There are 11 channels in the 2.4 GHz band. Usually channel 1, 6, or 11 works best. Check out your neighbors, and see what channel they are using. Because the channels overlap one another, try to stay at least +5 or -5 channels from your strongest neighbors. For example, if you have a strong neighbor on channel 9, try any channel 1 through 4.
Also, try to locate the router about 4 to 6 feet above the floor, in an open area. Do not locate it behind your monitor or near other computer equipment or speakers. The antenna should be vertical.
Also, in the computer, go to your wireless software, and go to "Preferred Networks" (sometimes called "Profiles" ). There are probably a few networks listed. Delete any network named "linksys". Also delete any network that you do not recognize, or that you no longer use. If your current network is not listed, enter its info (SSID, encryption (if any), and key (if any) ). Then select your current network and make it your default network, and set it to automatic login. You may need to go to "settings" to do this, or you may need to right click on your network and select "Properties" or "settings".
Some users have reported improved wireless performance by switching to WPA encryption.
If you continue to have problems, try the following:
For wireless g routers, try setting the "Transmission Rate" to 54 Mbps.
If you still have trouble, download and install the latest firmware for your router. After a firmware upgrade, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
Hope this helps. Please report back as to which suggestion helped you. -
I've been experiencing extremely slow browsing lately and have no idea why. I've read ALL the other posts concerning this and they don't seem to apply because I don't think it's strictly a Safari issue. I've tried Firefox and IE and get the same problems on certain pages that seem to just pop up very, very quickly on my PC, which is annoying becaues I hate PCs and my MAC is (supossedly ) a lot faster. I've emptied the cache, reset the history, trashed the icons, repaired permissions, etc.
What do I do now?
Thanks!I'm not sure how to find that, when searching google I found http://tools.pingdom.com/ping/ and the results from that told me

Slow Browsing/Problem connecting to games
Hi,
About two weeks ago I started to have a problem with my internet, webpages were slow to load, some not loading at all, and a number of games were suffering from disconnects. Upon contacting BT technical support they found a problem with our Home Hub 3.0 so sent us a new one.
However after setting up the new hub, i'm still having the exact same problems. The slow browsing is on both my PC which is connected by ethernet, and my laptop which is wireless. Despite this during peak and off-peak times, BT's speedtest is telling me that my PC has 75mb download speed and 16MB upload speeds.Have you tried changing the DNS setting to google DNS on your devices

Sudden slow down in data transfer
I'm reading data from the hard disk on a Target PXI System (8106 RT) and sending it via Ethernet to a Host PC and writing it to its hard disk. I read a chuck of data from the Target, send it using TCP Write function. The Host uses the TCP Read function get the data and write it to its hard disk. Data is being transfer over a Gbit Ethernet. A total of 9 files ranging in size from 700 MB - 2 GB are being transferred. The process moves along at an adequate speed until it suddenly slows down to slower than a snail's pace in the middle of a file.
By using probes (see enclosures) I've been able to determine it take approximately 17 seconds between when the data is read on the PXI to when it is written on the Host. However, an iteration of the loop on the Target has increased to over 3 minutes. The CPU usage on the Target and Host are minimal, less than 1%. Memory usage on the Host is also small. Any suggestions on how to diagnose what has caused this sudden slow down?

Slide3.PNG 39 KBI would recommend using smaller chunk sizes for your data transfers. I would recommend something inthe 10K to 50K range. I have done quite a bit of profiling for sending large amounts of data and I have found that it is better to send lots of smaller chunks rather than fewer large chunks. Also make sure that you are not automatically building up large buffers in your application if you are using shift registers. If you are reading from a file read the file in chunks and send the chuncks. Don't read the whole file in in one read. One experiment I ran resulted in a single read of a large file (2 MB or so) took something like 10 minutes to read it in one read. However it only took a couple of 100 ms to read the whole thing in 10K chunks. Same applies to wrinting very large chunks using the TCP write. You can easily get a timeout if you write 1 MB as a single write because the receiver has not consumed all of the data within the timeout period. However, multiple small writes will reset the timeout for each chunk written.

Sudden slow down after an auto-shutdown - kernel_task running hot.
Hi,
I was playing Braid on supremely low battery, and my MacBook Pro 13" (Early 2011) running 10.7.2, automatically turned off. Plugged it into the charger and went to bed. Booted it up next morning and it is so incredibally slow. No warning, no gradual slow down, just all of a sudden. No peripherals attached at all.
Checked my Activity Monitor, kernal_task is running at 330mbs, from what I've seen that is pretty bad. That's the only thing I can see that is out of the ordinary.
Anyone want to take a stab at the cause of this sudden slow down? It's making using my laptop very very tedious.Note: In Safe Mode kernal_task is running at 220mbs. Is that a clue? I don't know.

What do I do when a file suddenly slows down? It takes 20 to 30 seconds for one sentence of text to slowly appear on the screen after I type it.
Problem is associated with one chapter (file) in a book of twenty. The other 19 are fine. Same symptoms when the same file is opened in another computer.
I tried starting with a new, blank chapter, copied and pasted the text and the problem reappeared.
I tried starting with another new, blank chapter, and retyped all the text. The problem soon came back.
I don't know if the problem is associated with a photo I place into the file, or with some text, or what.
Please help, very frustrating to not be able to work.
Thank you,

Macbook Pro laptop (early 2013) sudden slow down, and heats up while sleeping
Hi! I need help with my Macbook Pro laptop (early 2013) that suddenly slowed down, and heats up while sleeping. It slowed down 3 days ago. I want to know what checks I can do to find what is wrong with my laptop. Thank You
Hi! I did reset SMC but it did not work but thank you. Now, my hard drive crashed, bought a new one, but unfortunately my laptop does not detect the new hard drive so that where I'm at. Im not sure if I need to format the hard drive, replace an internal part like the connector of the hard drive to the logic board or the new hard drive is broken.

Dreamweaver suddenly slow?
Running CS4 on Mac OSX v 10.5.8, PowerPC G5, 1.5 GB RAM. Normally Dreamweaver runs fine -- not super speedy, but workable. Every now and then, it suddenly slows down. Today it's taking over a minute for the beachball to stop spinning after changing a margin for a div, or even to load a page. Everything else is closed except Firefox (and even rebooting and having nothing else open doesn't solve it.) MacFileCache-********.dat has been deleted, still no help.
When this has happened before, time has solved the problem. Except, of course, I have a final project due next week and I need to get some serious work done this weekend. I'll cry if I have to code everything by hand in a text editor... Help!
Kathy A.I had tried that the last time I had this same situation, with no improvement.
Since I posted, I have found one new thing that may shed light on the situation. It's only happening on pages where I have smart objects on the page. It doesn't happen every time I have a smart object, but the larger the original Photoshop files, the more likely it is to happen. I took one of the offending pages, removed all the images in a text editor (for other reasons), saved, and then accidentally opened it in Dreamweaver -- it worked like, well, a dream. Added back one smart object (small file size for the png, but large PS original file), and it took over 90 seconds to change the padding of a div on the page. Took the smart object back out, and back to normal.
The only thing I can think of at this spot is that 1.5 megs of RAM just isn't enough to work with large originals. If that's the case, I can live with the extra step of resaving png's out of Photoshop everytime I modify the original file. (Not going to throw more ram into this computer when I'm saving up for an Intel-chipped Mac.) If it's something else, I'd love to know what I'm doing that's causing it.

Photoshop CS5 suddenly slow.
Never seen this before. My 8 core 2.8 GHz Mac Pro has 10 GB RAM and a blank 100 GB scratch disk. Photoshop is always quick. Has been for years. Suddenly today, Photoshop is slow like molasses to open & save files. Lots of progress bars and wait cursors. Everything else on the Mac is fine. It boots quickly & normally, and other apps are happy. My boot drive, a clean installed Mountain Lion system, says S.M.A.R.T. Status: Verified. In Activity Monitor, a process with ID # 0, Kernel Task, was using 700 to 800 MB RAM, while another process, mds, with ID # 44, is using 350 MB RAM. Does anybody know what is going on?
I should add that I booted from a backup system and its copy of Photoshop was also doing the same thing. In addition, a high level troubleshooter on Apple Discussions informed me that my present level of 500 MB RAM for Kernel Task is normal. So all I know is Photoshop is suddenly slow.Gary Politzer wrote:
