Lately Activity Monitor shows pmTool to be running as high as 18% of
CPU. I do use multiple browsers, and a few months ago I used Onyx to
clear the Spotlight cache. But that was months ago. What can I do
to get pmTool under control?
pmTool is the process that collects data on other processes, for
Activity Monitor! If you want it to use less cpu time, then set
Activity Monitor to only update every 5 sec.
Speaking of browsers, I've noticed lately that Google Reader seems
to crash them while I am loading subscriptions. Wonder if they are
doing this on purpose.
Yes. Google has decided to screw millions by intentionally making
their product crash.
The only browser seemingly stable with Reader is Stainless, which
has improved since I tried it a year ago. Stainless now seems faster
than Omniweb, which is waaay faster than Safari or Webkit.
Have you tried clearing caches?
Anyone use The Old Reader with ppc?
I use NetNewsWire on Leopard/ppc.
