Very slow disk performance in Bootcamp 2.1 with XP Pro SP3

Tried bootcamp today and for some reason disk access is painfully slow. XP shouldn't have these issues on such a fast machine. Is this a known issue? Is there a work around?
As it stands XP cannot be used for anything useful due to poor disk performance.
Any help greatly appreciated.

After more digging around I discovered that Bootcamp was operating my hardrive in PIO mode rather than Ultra-DMA - hence the very slow performance. I tried looking for drivers but failed. In the end I installed Vista Premium 32bit and everything now seems fine.
I wonder if bootcamp will get updated to give XP users the full speed of their Mac Pro drives?
Either way, I'm now sorted

My wifi is very slow after installing mountain lion on my Mac book pro

My wifi is very very slow after installing mountain lion on my MacBook pro.
What can I do?

Ha ha, I misread that as "My wife is very slow after installing mountain lion on my Mac book pro"
BTW on my MBPro (late 2009 with max RAM) Mountain Lion runs very well with no slowing down.

Have 2009 time capsule with 6 month old iMac very slow cox said i needed to replace with a new time machine with newer wifi ??

have 2009 time capsule with 6 month old iMac very slow ...cox said to replace with new router or extreme with new wifi ???? confused

Replace the Time Capsule with a new one or replace your router with an Airport Extreme Base Station that has faster Wi-Fi. Or you could just connect your old Time Capsule using an Ethernet connection from the Time Capsule to the computer's Ethernet port.

Macbook pro mid-2012 13" has very slow disk access

Until 3 days ago my macbook pro mid-2012 13" running OX 10.8.3 was running fine. Then, it showed very slow response anytime it had to access the hard disk. After doing the usual checks and disk first aid repairs to no avail, I booted from my external disk with an older copy of my hard disk and everything then worked as normal, except when I accessed the internal hard disk, then it crawled once again (spinning beach ball, took many seconds just to open a finder window and then several minutes to display the contents). I ran the Apple Hardware Tests and it said everything was fine, even though it tooks several minutes before the test would actually start. I also ran the program BlackMagic Speed Disk to find out if the disk was having transfer speed problems and it showed a respectible transfer rate (60MB/s), not great but not like the 0.3MB/s I was getting when I tried to back up the internal disk. I was using Carbon Copy Cloner to try to back up the internal disk but had to give up since at 0.3MB/s, it would take days to back up the 250GB on the disk. I found on the web that using "restore" in Disk Utility, I could do a disk copy without the file by file copy which allowed me to back up my disk in "only" 6 hours. Booting from my newly made copy on an external disk worked fine and ran at nearly normal speed (slightly slower since it was an external disk running through USB2). As a final attempt to prove this was a disk problem, I erased the internal disk and reinstalled OSX 10.8. I am still waiting for this install to finish, it has been 5 hours although the progress bar said it should be done in 20 minutes. This was fairly convincing evidence that it is not a software or settings problem. However, all my web searches could find no other case of a problem like mine. I presume I have a failed hard disk but as all the diagnostic programs say it is working fine, I was hesitating to bring it in without hard diagnostic evidence. If anyone knows what might be the problem, it would be much appreciated to hear from you.

It should not take 5 hours to install Mac OS X. There is something wrong with the disk. Try reformatting where you do a wipe of the drive (an select the option to write zeros which will remap bad sectors). Then try to install MAc OS X.
I got this information from here:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20064489-263.html
Back up your data.
Use Time Machine or a system cloning utility to create a full and restorable backup of your data. If you suspect bad blocks, then when cloning you might consider not using a "block-level" copy process, since this will likely run into problems.
Boot to the utilities DVD.
If you have a boot DVD for a tool like Drive Genius or another drive utility, then boot to that; if not, use your OS X installation DVD (once you select your language, open Disk Utility from the Utilities menu).
Format the drive.
Using your selected utility, format the drive and check for bad blocks. If you are using Disk Utility, click the Erase tab, click the Options button, and then select the option to write zeros to the disk (you do not need to do multipass erase options, as this will provide no additional benefit for managing bad blocks). Writing to zeros may take a couple of hours depending on the size of the drive, but when done the drive will have remapped any blocks that were not reliably read.
Restore the OS installation.
If you have used Time Machine to create your backup, boot to your OS X installation DVD (if you are not using Disk Utility) and use the option in the Utilities menu to restore from backup. Attach your Time Machine drive and then proceed with the restoration, selecting the newest backup as the one to restore to your system. If you have used a system cloning tool, then attach the cloned drive and boot off of it (hold the Option key at start-up to select it from the boot menu). When you are booted to the cloned drive, run your cloning utility to copy the installation back to the computer's main boot drive.An optional approach here is to perform a full reinstallation of the OS from your installation DVD, and then migrate your data, applications, and settings from either the clone or the Time Machine backups using Apple's Migration Assistant.

Very slow mac performance

Mac is very very slow, I upgraded the RAM to 3GB but the difference wasn't noticable. I then downloaded the iDefrag application. The iDefrag app is unable to run a full defrag because there isn't enough contiguous space available.
iDefrag support team advised my HDD is in too much of a state to perform defrag and to create a boot disc and run it from there. I am unable to create a boot disc as my mac's DVD drive no longer burns DVD/CDs.
I have cleared nearly everything off my mac except software applications and the Adobe Lightroom 2 catalog file, which is 10GB. But I don't understand what is using the majority of my HDD space.
Any advice is most welcome.
The HDD size is - 119.69GB
Used is 58.75GB
Available is 60.94GB

I'd launch the Activity Monitor utility, set the list at the top to "All Processes", then click on the CPU heading until the top CPU users are at the top of the list. Continue to work until things slow down, then see what's consuming CPU time.
You should also select the "System Memory" tab near the bottom. If after you've been using your Mac for a while, the value for "Page outs" is greater than zero and increases while you work, then you could benefit from even more RAM.

Very slow browser performance

Hi and thanks in advance for your time.
My internet browsing is painfully slow. I tested the speed on speedtest.net and on speakeasy.net, the result were:
MP3 file download (5MB): 2 sec
Video clip (35MB): 14 sec
Movie (800MB): 5min
Download: 20 MB/s - 26053kbps
Upload: 6.52MB/s - 6594kbps
Ping: 71Ms
Another useful info is that since the last update, Safari has crashed few times, particularly with s website for music that has lots of QT videos. However, the speed was very slow even before the last update
I use Comcast with a DSL modem that was reset by comcast prior to performing the test (did not see improvement after that). Supposly, I got more speed that what I am paying for, but again, it is QUITE slow.
My computer is a 2Ghz PowerPC G5 running 2Gb RAM, bus speed: 667Mhz, 128MB video RAM, HD is 232GB (123 are used mainly on music, video, photos and keynote docs)
What can I do?
Thanks!

Let's try and deal with the slowness first:
Adding DNS codes to your Network Settings, should gives good results in terms of speed-up:
Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu. Click on TCP/IP and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' enter the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(An explanation of why that 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.
If your Safari crashes, please copy and paste the crash report here.

Help! Poor performance/very slow in performing GR

Hi,
I have a production situation where the GR in the system is very slow. The moment "post" button was clicked, it takes approximately 25msec for the system to return the material document number. BASIS which showed that the kernel portion took up the most time (see below). Iu2019m not too sure what to make out of this trace - can anyone help advice how to proceed for the next step in resolving/troubleshooting this?
From what i could see - most of the time is spent in GOODS_MOVEMENT_POST.
Many thanks in advance.

MacBook PRO very slow Tiger performance

dear all,
I have seen this topic many times but unfortunetly none of the tips mentioned has solved my issues.
Basically I am running OS X Tiger on a Mac Book PRO with 1G of RAM.
CPU wise, no problem, as far as I can see the usage is 30% CPU on average.
RAM wise, about 70% of the RAM is in use.
Now, when I use usual OS X application, the whole systems becomes very slow, for example I have a few (2 or 3) text files open with SubEthaEdit, one terminal window open with just a SSH connection to another machine, and then the regular apps like itunes, Mail, Safari, Address Book, Calendar, Transmit and AdiumX running as well as a few widgets like Clock, Calculator and the Stock Market quotes.
Now, for example when I put my mouse on the Dock, it fails to respond immediately, taking a few seconds to actually display the app name.
More over, if for example a Terminal window is down in the task bar and I click on, it sometime takes 10 seconds to come up.
Same with Adium, I click on one of my contacts, it takes 10 / 20 secs to display the chat window, and if I am lucky I can start typing in it.
Generally, just after a boot, the system is fine, but as soon as I start a few applications, the systems becomes very slow, even sometimes fails to respond.
One particularity is that I work with a Japanese username under a English OS X, as far as I know, this shouldn't be a problem.
Other thing is that I enabled the OS X firewall, but I am still experiencing the same issue when not connected to any network.
I hope those are enough informations concerning my issue, one more detail is that I did disable startup items and check if no extra deamon was running on the system (I did Repair my disk permission as well)
If anyone has an idea on where to check next and what could cause this slowdown issues, that would be great.
Thanks in Advance!

20 GB of swap? something is definitely wrong. I run more applications than you, which are more memory-intensive, and my swap never goes above 512 MB. Granted, I have 1.5 GB of RAM, but still...
Putting swap on a different partition of the same disk won't help at all. The bottleneck is still disk I/O, plus now the heads of the hard disk must seek farther to go between swap and reading/writing your actual data.
I would open your applications one by one, from a fresh boot, and see which one eats up all the memory. 20 GB is an obscene amount, and points to a problem.
Edit: I checked again. Menumeters says I'm using 256 MB of total swap space right now, but in Activity Monitor my VM size is listed as 5.46 GB. I'm assuming that's what you're looking at in Activity Monitor. Still, 20 GB of VM size seems obscene to me.

VERY slow reporting performance

We've created reports which, when run directly on Oracle through sqlplus (copying the exact SQL from the report) take around 3 minutes, when run from BO (using Web Intelligence) take hours.
The SQL outputs around 300,000 rows, which equates to a few hundred pages in the report. Is there a reason why the report would take so long (the session to Oracle is open the whole time)? I can understand it not taking just the time for Oracle to execute the query, as WebI then needs to take the results and produce the report, but I wouldn't expect it to take hours.
So far on our servers we've concentrated on making Oracle perform faster, and now we've got that working better our attention has been drawn to the performance issues of the reporting, and we don't have any experience with tuning it, so any advice would be very much appreciated.
We're running BO Enterprise XI R2 SP3 on Linux with Web Intelligence as the only reporting interface. The database is Oracle RAC (3 node cluster) 10.2.0.4.

Correction: I incorrectly said jobserver in the earlier post (I read your post wrong).
You need to start a trace on the CMS (for querytiming), the Webi Report Server and the Connection Server (which accesses the db)
For the CMS trace, stop the CMS, in ccm.config, add a '-trace -querytiming' to the end of the cmsLaunch line. Similarly, add a -trace to the command line for the Webi Report Server (I don't remember the exact line; I don't have a XI R2 deployment on Linux available right now)
To enable tracing on the connection server, do the following:
(SAP 1197745 - How to enable connection server tracing on a UNIX platform)
Open cs.cfg in a text editor. These are located by default in
Linux: bobje/enterprise115/linux_x86/dataAccess/RDBMS/connectionServer/cs.cfg
Locate the following entry:
Traces ClassID="csTRACELOG" Active="No"
Change the "No" to "Yes".
Traces ClassID="csTRACELOG" Active="Yes"
Save the file.
Restart the Web Intelligence Report Server.
====================
NOTE:
Be aware that connection server traces slow down the server performance. Detailed traces get generated when this level of tracing is enabled. Disable tracing when not needed.
====================
PS: The Webi Report Server contains the Connection Server libraries. The Connection Server runs in-proc within the Webi Report Server. Hence the need to restart the Webi Report Server.
Also, I encourage you to open a ticket with BO on this. Performance issues are never easy to troubleshoot, even less so on a forum such as this.
Finally, I don't believe there is any document that lists all command line options. Or rather, if such a document exists, I don't believe it's available for public consumption.

Kapsel Fiori Client (FC): self-built iOS FC shows very slow UI performance

Hi Experts,
I have used KapselSDK to build our own FC using:
SMP3.0 KapselSDK SP07_PL00
Cordova 3.6.3
Xcode 6.2
OS X 10.10.2 Yosemite
Enterprise distribution certificate for deplyment
.ipa for iPhone4S, 5 (tested)
ipd also inside Airwatch (tested)
App config:
SMP proxy is not used.
The issue:
We use FC to launch the Fiori Launchpad where there are some Fiori apps. The problem is that after type usr pwd, it took very long time to see the Launchpad UI. Tried the standard FC from Apple Store, and it worked very fast.
Does anyone have any idea? I see some info about the slow UI performance for Android devices which can be solved using crosswalk, but my understanding is that crosswalk is not for iOS.
Thanks.

Have you tired testing the same URL through Mobile Safari to see if it is slow also?
We have had reports of slowness on iOS and we are researching. The details are iOS uses HTTP pipelining when the connection is slow. This means iOS bundles several requests (2-3 to our observations) together but the ICM does only response to one of them and ignores the others. After a timeout of about 1 minute (transparent to the FLP) the Safari automatically repeats the ignored requests. It may happen that this happens a second time, but not a third time – then the requests are not repeated anymore. Seems to happen in Mobile Safari Browser more often than Fiori Client and doesn't happen in Mobile Chrome on same device.
Thanks,

Very slow Spotlight performance

Hi, I'm experiencing a very very slow (even none) performance when I try to spotlight some files and folders. It has slightly a better performance on the spotlight window. It's working perfect only with apps.
I've been rebuild the spotlight's database and did permissions repairs and other stuff found googling and nothing seems to get it correctly working. It did worked perfect some time ago. But not any more.
I'd thank some help.

Download and run ALL the free OnyX cleaning and maintenance aspects and reboot.

Spotlight will index again, but see how it works after it's done.

MacBook Pro - Very slow, Full RAM, Fan is constantly on - With EtreCheck, etc.

Hello everyone! Thank you all in advance for any type of help or advice, I appreciate it a lot.
I am using:
MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2012)
Running OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2
Processor 2,3 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 512 MB
Macintosh HD has 294,08 GB free (out of 499,25 GB)
I am a student, using my MacBook constantly during the day. Applications that I use daily - Safari, Word, Outlook and Finder are always on; a lot of the time I am also using Photoshop CS6, Skype.
Ever since the update to OS X Yosemite my MacBook did slow down noticeably. I left this issue unattended as I was using uni computer at the time. Recently I returned to the actual studies and design work on my MacBook. I couldn't cope with how slow it was, ended up in forums looking for the solution. I tried a couple of things already (was restarting/shutting down computer in-between these tasks):
1. Disabled FileVault (it was on for moths, I had no idea of what it is), completed the decryption process (it took around 10 hours).
2. After that I ran EtreCheck, that found a couple of actual and potential issues, I more or less sort it out, will attach the new report in the end of the post.
3. Tried to disable Spotlight to affect mds, not sure it worked.
4. Moved to Trash apps I wasn't using, properly uninstalled only a couple of them. Emptied trash.
5. Erased Safari history that emptied about 500MB of RAM, but then it went back to almost 3.98GB full out of 4GB.
At the moment I only have Safari on and kernel_task takes 570MB of memory, used RAM is 3,88GB out of 4GB.
Fan is constantly on, MacBook is very slow. If I understand correctly RAM is the main issue, unfortunately being a student I am not able to buy and install more memory. I also understand that Photoshop takes a lot of RAM memory, what can I do about it? Photoshop is a crucial app for me.
Is there a way to free some of the RAM memory and make my Macbook faster? Would a clean Yosemite install help? (Can Yosemite at all perform properly on a MacBook with only 4GB memory? What will help it run faster?)
Here's my EtreCheck report:

Let Spotlight finish indexing your HDD. Stopping it is pointless.
Regarding the fans, it is always running when you turn on the MBP. It is a question of how fast. If there are light loads on the CPU, the fans should be near silent. If otherwise, try a SMC reset.
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
If that does not slow the speed at very light loads then there are other reasons that need to be explored.
If you cannot instal;l additional RAM (your MBP will accept up to 16GB) then you will have to accept slower performance. Yosemite is a RAM glutton. The best sources of Mac compatible RAM are Owc and Crucial.
Time Machine or any other backup is only necessary if the data you have on your MBP is important. Ask yourself this question: What will be the degree of inconvenience should the internal HDD fail? All hard drives eventually fail.
Ciao.

Very Slow Video that Does Not Fully Load on Macbook Pro

Hi,
I have a macbook pro from 2007 (Mac OS X 10.4.11) and I have never had any issues with streaming video until yesterday. I have fast internet, and I can browse quickly, but my video is recently being very slow and won't fully load. It always says 14 out of 16 things loaded or some other number when I try to play a video. I have tried resetting Safari and emptying my cache to speed it up several times with no luck. I have Safari 4.1.2. I am wondering what I need to do to get this fixed as soon as possible because there are some important videos I need to watch for classes.
Thanks so much for your help!

Do you have the same problem w/streaming videos using other browsers? Suggest that you re-post over in the Safari for Mac forums as your problem is not MBP related but rather software.
