Hi Alex, maybe useless but that's my spec and I have no issues (I'm not yet with MonoTouch 6) and all is done with IB, with more than 30 xibs/forms cross platform with Windows Mobile:
Nome do Modelo: MacBook Pro Identificador do Modelo: MacBookPro7,1 Nome do Processador: Intel Core 2 Duo Velocidade do Processador: 2,4 GHz Número de Processadores: 1 Número Total de Núcleos: 2 Cache de L2: 3 MB Memória: 8 GB Velocidade do Bus: 1,07 GHz It's something better than what you use but not so better, and the project is small... Memory is "high" just because I use Fusion with Windows VM and in 1 week it go to almost 0 MB free + Office 2011... My only desired change is to change to a SSD disk (and for the VM, a quadcore... but) Karl Em 28/09/2012, às 11:44, Alex White escreveu: > Hi Jeff, > > Thanks for looking at the logs you have found what I thought you would, race > conditions, of course in the perfect world we would have perfect performance > so that some of these did not occur, but as with all things programming, if > it can go wrong it is only a matter of time before it does. > > Get me a link to the build and I will have a good go with it, I will still > consider the move up to better hardware but in the short term that is not > going to happen and it gives us an opportunity to resolve some of these types > of issues, what I will do is clear down my Xcode logs once installed then > give it a hammering over the next couple of days. > > Whilst this has been frustrating to say the least, I am really happy with the > support I am getting and I am sure we will get to the bottom of things. > > ATB > > Alex > > > On 28 Sep 2012, at 15:20, Jeff Stedfast <j...@xamarin.com> wrote: > >> Hi Alex, >> >> It's worth investigating.
