Well that explains the high load. Maybe you should try your streaming
with iTunes?
>Also have Photoshop CS2 with 2 photos open and iTunes.
PS is a memory hog. How big are the photos? If big then you should follow
Adobe's instructions on memory management.
>And all of my widgets are running as usual.
You are trying to murder your Mac. One rogue Widget can cause a lot of
trouble. Get Widget Manager and use it.
>The cpu seems to vary between about 44% to around 58% most of the time
Way too high.
>with spikes up to 100%.
>I really miss having my special buttons on my Logitech rollerball!
Now I'm starting to think you are pulling my leg. Do you routinely drive
your car through ditches and then complain about the rough ride?
That's right, except she skids through. Paula sez:
"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of
arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to
skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body
thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a
ride!" Have a wonderful day! "
Sounds like fun.
Paula, lose the widgets. Set up a larger swap file for Photoshop. Mine's
on a separate drive [it's in the prefs somewhere; in my ps you can
select up to 4 swap disks]. Does Camino have a memory leak like other
Moz browsers? I use some beta versions just so I can have a debug menu.
Can you add more RAM?
BTW, the WCPT iTunes stream is usually OK, and so it the sound
quality--http://12.190.95.162:8000/listen.pls--and for Mike, turn on the
Visualizer.
