Hi
A colleague of mine has a G4 'Mirror Door' 1Ghz with 768MB RAM. I
myself have a G4 'Mirror Door' 1.25Ghz with 1GB of RAM. I know there
will be a difference in speed but his machine runs incredibly slow.
Startup takes over 60 seconds and the dock is very sluggish. Even
compared to a G4 'Sawtooth' 500Mhz with 1.5GB of RAM it seems slow.
All machines are running 10.3.9, I have run some tests on his machine
and everything seems ok. I have also checked the startup items as well
as repaired disk and permissions.
Is there anything else I should look for? It originally came with 10.2
and was upgraded to 10.3 straight over the top of 10.2. It is about 3
years old and as we work in a publishing house is worked very hard
daily using files as large as 600MB at times.
Is there any point running a defrag program like DiskWarrior or would
it benefit from backing up the important files and wiping the machine
for a fresh install of Panther?
Kind Regards
Simon Royal
