Yes, those heady days are gone, and for the most part (99.9 percent of the time) that is indeed a good thing. Assigning the memory space for an app? Wow.
But one thing you can adjust is the CPU usage. There's a Unix command called `renice,' which I don't really know the specifics of how to work. But there is a program (on Version Tracker) called "Renicer" which will do it for you. It will adjust it so that a certain application will get priority usage of the CPU. Whether that will help you keep a Real Audio stream, I don't know...:-) -Steve Sobek On Tuesday, November 19, 2002, at 10:52 PM, Dale Goodvin wrote: > n the ole days, you could assign more memory to apps if you so > desired, but > with OSX those heady days are gone, as far as i can tell. > > Any suggestions heartily accepted, "It used to be a good hotel, but that proves nothing- I used to be a good boy." -Mark Twain Steve Sobek http://www.unitedmac.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
