...and to piggyback on your posting, ever since I upgraded to
Panther I've been getting a lot of beach balls while browsing
with Safari. I don't even have to abuse it for things to stall
up. As an example, when reading Yahoo Groups, I'll open
messages in new tabs and Safari will seize up even if I do 2 or 3.
I believe that I've read in several places that if you'll "empty
cache" from within Safari (under the Safari menu next to the Apple
menu), that problem will lessen considerably.
Tried it, still getting lots of beach balls.
How much RAM do you have? I still have only the 256 Mb that my
iBook G4 came with, and that is clearly not enough for Panther.
Got 512 under the hood.
Here is a script that might help:
tell application "Safari"
quit
end tell
tell application "Finder"
if (exists item "(path to home [...]
I don't know Applescript, but looking over the code, I'm wondering
if it
my description above was interpreted as Safari completely locking
up. Bad
wording on my part. It hangs for 5 to 10 seconds (if not longer)
with the
beach ball. Sometimes I'll even hear the fan picking up speed (in
this
G5.)
