UML too slow, so what is the best processor ?

I use Java Studio 8 to develop my new game. The game engine is going to be very powerful so I use JS8 UML features to see things in their globality. But it is extremely slow ( 8 seconds to show a class diagram ) on an Athlon 64 @ 3.2Ghz with 1GB RAM.
Can I expect some improvements by using a P4 with a dual core ? What are the options to disable to boost class diagram generation ?

I am also experiencing extremely slow responses when dealing with UML diagrams.
Project: 250+ source files, 30+ packages
Platform: Windows XP Pro, SP 2, JDK 1.5.0.5
Hardware: Mobile AMD Athlon 64 (running 32 bit XP edition) 4000+ 1.58 GHz, 1.5 GB RAM, ATI Mobility Radeon X600 Video card (with it's own memory so no system RAM is used)
After initially trying Studio 8, and experiencing very slow responses, and even crashes on an old system (756 Mb Ram 1.75 GHz process), I purchased the new system described above. Studio 8 does not crash on the new system, but is still extremely slow (10 to 15 second wait, although performance noticeably improved over the older machine) when doing anything, even just moving a class to a different area of the diagram.
I looked at the jstudio.conf file and noticed that an Xms of 256 and an Xmx of 512 is being used (I don't know what the PermSize is though). This seems to be an adequate setting as the java process from Studio shows about 347 Mb. I haven't yet tried to change the heap setting yet.
I hope these performance problems can be resolved, they're the only thing holding me back from making the switch and migration from Eclipse 3.1

  • Time Machine is EXTREMELY SLOW. What is the best way to make a complete, reliable copy of the hard drive before i erase the disk?

    I was given an older iMac (from 2010) on the condition i first create a complete, reliable copy of everything on her hard drive and then wipe it clean.  Is Time Machine the best way to do this so that she can use this data when she needs it?  I started Time Machine but it is so slow, at this rate it will take at least 10 days to do the first backup.  I'm already on the 3rd day now at about 2.5 GB per day.  Is there a better way that is reliable?  perhaps some kind of disc copy? This iMac has 4gb memory,processor: 3.06 gHz Intel core i3, model iMac11,2, 1 processor, 2 cores.  thank you

  • What's the best storage solution for a large iLife? RAID? NAS?

    I'm looking for an affordable RAID storage solution for my Time Machine, iTunes Library, iMovie videos, and iPhoto Library. To this point I've been doing a hodgepodge of external hard drives without the saftey of redundancy and I've finaly been bitten with HD failures. So I'm trying to determine what would be the best recommendation for my scenario. Small Home Office for my wife's business (just her), and me with all our media. I currentlty have a mid-2010 Mac Mini (no Thunderbolt), she has an aging 2007 iMac and 2006 MacBook Pro (funny that they're all about the same benchmark speed). We have an AppleTV (original), iPad2 and two iPhone 4S's.
    1st Question: Is it better to get a RAID and connect it to my Airport Extreme Base Station USB port as a shared disk? OR to connect it directly to my Mac Mini and share through Home Sharing? OR Should I go with a NAS RAID?
    2nd Question: Simple is Better. Should I go with a Mac Mini Server and connect drives to it? (convert my Mac Mini into a server) or Should I just get one of those nice all-in-one 4-bay RAID drive solutions that I can expand with?
    Requirements:
    1. Expandable and Upgradeable. I don't want something limited to 2TB drives, but as drives get bigger and cheaper I want to easily throw one in w/o concerns.
    2. Simple integration with Time Machine and my iLife: iTunes, iMovie, iPhoto. If iTune's Home Sharing feature is currently the best way of using my media across multiple devices then why mess with it? I see "DLNA certified" storage on some devices and wonder if that would just add another layer of complexity I don't need. One more piece to make compatible.
    3. Inexpensive. I totally believe in the "You Get What You Pay For" concept. But I also realize sometimes I'm buying marketing, not product. I imagine that to start, I'm going to want a diskless system (because of $$$) to throw all my drives into, and then upgrade bigger drives as my data and funds grow.
    4. Security. I don't know if its practical, but I like the idea of being able to pop two drives out and put them in my safe and then pop them back in once a week for the backup/mirroring. I like this idea because I'm concerned that onsite backup is not always the safest. Unfortunately those cloud based services aren't designed for Terabytes of raw family video, or an entire media library that isn't wholey from the iTunes Store. I can't be the only one facing this challenge. Surely there's an affordable way to keep a safe backup for the average Joe. But what is it?
    5. Not WD. I've had bad experiences with Western Digital drives, and I loathe their consumer packaged backup software that comes preloaded on their external drives. They are what I meant when I say you get what you pay for. Prettily packed garbage.
    6. Relatively Fast. I have put all my media on an external drive before (back when it fit on one drive) and there's noticeable spool-up hang time. Thunderbolt's nice and all, but so new that its not easily available across devices, nor is it cheap. eSata is not really an option. I love Firewire but I'm getting the feeling that Apple has made it the red-headed step-child of connections. USB 3.0 looks decent, but like eSata, Apple doesn't recognize it exists. Where does that leave us? Considering this dilemma I really liked Seagate's GoFlex external drives because it meant I could always buy a new base and still be compatible. But that only works with single drives. And as impressive as Seagate is, we can't expect them to consistently double drive sizes every two years like they have been -cool as that may be.
    So help me out without getting too technical. What's the best setup? Is it Drobo? Thecus? ReadyNAS? Seagate's BlackArmor? Or something else entirely?
    All comments are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I am currently using WD 2TB Thunderbolt hard drive for my iTunes, which i love and is works great.  i am connected directly to my Mac Book Pro. I am running low on Memory and thinking of buying a bigger Hard drive.  My question is should I buy 6TB thunderbolt HD or 6TB NAS drive to work solely for iTunes.  I have home sharing enabled for my Apple TV 
    I also have my time capsule connected just as back up only.   

  • What is the best option for generating .wmv video working on Mac?

    I am working on a mac. I need to generate my output in .wmv. I am exporting as .mov then using MacX converter to convert to .wmv. The quality degrades too much. What is the best way to generate .wmv?
    Thanks in advance.

    YOur statement is way too generic and vague. You have not provided any exact settings,  version info, details about the footage etc. That asude WMV is a compressed format and wil always degrade.

  • Sometimes my computer takes too long to connect to new website. I am running a pretty powerful work program at same time, what is the best solution? Upgrading speed from cable network, is it a hard drive issue? do I need to "clean out" the computer?

    Many times my computer takes too long to connect to new website. I have wireless internet (time capsule) and I am running a pretty powerful real time financial work program at same time, what is the best solution? Upgrading speed from cable network? is it a hard drive issue? do I only need to "clean out" the computer? Or all of the above...not to computer saavy.  It is a Macbook Pro  osx 10.6.8 (late 2010).

    Almost certainly none of the above!  Try each of the following in this order:
    Select 'Reset Safari' from the Safari menu.
    Close down Safari;  move <home>/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db to the trash; restart Safari.
    Change the DNS servers in your network settings to use the OpenDNS servers: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
    Turn off DNS pre-fetching by entering the following command in Terminal and restarting Safari:
              defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false

    Hi, likely somethiung else, but Free Sophos...
    http://www.sophos.com/products/enterprise/endpoint/security-and-control/mac/
    Very Important, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive first of all? Click on the Macintosh HD on the Desktop, then do a Get Info on it.
    First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
    Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
    How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
    In the Memory tab, are there a lot of Pageouts?

  • What is the best way to manage my iPhoto, which is taking up too much space on my MacBook Pro?

    What is the best way to manage my iPhoto, which is taking up too much space on my MacBook Pro?
    Specifically, I'd like to keep some of my favorite pictures on the laptop while moving the rest to an external hard drive. Is there a way to tag just a few pictures inside an event/album as "favorite", while storing the rest in an EHD, but still keep them connected to the same event/album? I'd like to have just the favorite pictures on the laptop, but when I have the EHD connected,  be able to view all my pictures in the same place, and not have to browse through separate hard drives. Ideally, whether or not a picture is designated as "favorite" will determine where it resides.
    Is this at all possible?
    I have only 7 GB left on my HD and I'm desperately needing a solution!
    Thanks!

    You need two libraries to do this. One on the external with all your Photos. One on the internal with a subset - your favourites. You do it this way to make backing up easier - that is, back up the library with everything, so you're only backing up one.
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    Now you have two full versions of the Library.
    3. On the Internal library, trash the Events/albums/photos you don't want there
    Now you have a full copy of the Library on the External and a smaller subset on the Internal
    Some Notes:
    As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
    You can choose which Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    You can keep the Library on the external updated with new imports using iPhoto Library Manager

  • How do I fix the problem 'disk is too slow' and what does it mean anyway?

    I'm transferring casete tapes to the Mac via the input line. I've transferrred nearly 100 with no prouble, but sudddenly today two things have gone wrong (see separate question for the other one). This one is that suddenly the error message 'Disk is too slow' comes up. also the track (the top one, not the bottom edit section one) is bright red instead ofthe usual dark purple.
    What's gone wrong and how do I fixit?

    Sorry about the lack of terms: lazy of me I admit. Having read up Garageband Help, I think I've got the answers. Yes, by the top part I mean the track in the timeline. The bottom part is the same track showing up in what is headed the 'Audio Region' The bright red is the colour the track is in the timeline during recording, and it stays like that until after stopping recording I click somewhere in the timeline section (not necessarily on the track itself) at which time it just goes the normal kind of dull greyish colour an unselected region does.
    Thanks for telling me how to see the HD info. Its 250GB, of which I've used about 23GB. The first computer I worked on as a programmer back in 1962 had a 400KB drum (the first disks didn't arrive until 1963) as its random access backing store - and yes, that is a K. The machine also came with 12KB of RAM and 4 tape decks, was the size of a hotel kitchen, and cost about $200,000. You young people don't know how lucky you are

    First thing anyone can do is replace or upgrade the system boot drive to SSD. Makes a very nice improvement.
    How new or old is it? What version of OS X is it running?
    Maybe it won't run faster but could run better with more RAM.
    Take a look at all the tabs in Activity Monitor. If not on the Dock, go into Applications/Utilities and open it and keep it on the dock. Can tell you what is using your processor the most, RAM usage, disk and network I/O.
    Don't install things that aren't needed. That can be counter intuitive to some but 'less is more' and some just really pull a computer system down. Security programs, "clean up programs" and others.

    If you are running 10.6.8 then you must have bought it 3-4 yrs ago?
    Might want to check the specs and then look at various programs and their requirements as to whether Final Cut Express and ah, you want to import media to an app, not "upload."

  • There are way too many photos on my internal hard drive. I have older libraries, and newer libraires in iPhoto and Aperture 2.  What is the best way to find and reduce the number of duplicate photos/libraries  before upgrading to Aperture 3?

    Sharon-
    Good idea.
    Back up first.
    I would probably wait for the merge function of the latest version before merging. Be sure to verify every merge.
    Merge Libraries, then from within Aperture move images to referenced on external hard drives.

  • I need to organize medical photos.  They are pre-op and post-op photos.  What is the best way to organize them.  should I use iphoto or is that too much trouble.

    I need to organize medical photos.  They are pre-op and post-op photos.  What is the best way to organize them?  should I use iphoto or is that too much trouble? Since they occur on different days, organizing by event does not seem appropriate.  Also, organizing by face is not always possible as some are close up photos of an individual eye.  Surely, this has been done before, and I don't want to spin my wheels reinventing this.

    Who can tell with that amount of information to work with?
    iPhoto is not limited to Events or Faces as organizational tools - Albums, Keywords, various forms of metadata can be leveraged for use as well, and these are often more flexible. Really it's up to you to look at the tools available and see if they suit your usage scenario.
