I don't use soundflower but supposedly it includes an uninstaller app,
which is the ideal way to get rid of all the pieces. If you want to do
it manually you apparently have to not only delete the app but also the
Soundflower.kext in /System/Library/Extensions and reboot.

For now at least, removing Soundflower seems to have done it. Apps are still
slow to open but not as bad as before, and emails rarely delay when I open them
now. I have also noticed only one instance of Voiceover stuttering, and that
was right after booting up. Hopefully this fix will make a
Hi Alex,
The amount of Virtual memory sounds to be about normal. The CPU usage is very
high though for that. I’m guessing that the Mini just doesn’t have the
processing power and coupled with only 4 GB of RAM, you may have found the
culprit. If you have an external drive that you could

Good job on researching Chris. It sounds to me from this that it is a bigger

Thanks guys. I'll remove Soundflower, though I hate to as it is how I record my
microphone and system audio simultaneously. Still, if it is the problem, I
might look into a better solution like VAC or wait until someone fixes
Soundflower.

Okay, I tried it. I removed Soundflower and ran a permissions repair, just in
case. So far, emails seem to open immediately, and apps, while still slower to
launch than even a Lion machine, are faster than they were. Hopefully this will
do the trick. Thanks for your help, everyone.

How do you uninstall Soundflower? I too have it in my system preferences
under the sound section but I don't need it and somehow sometimes I get
a problem in that my audio routes itself through it and I lose
Voiceover. It caused me a bit of a headache so I would be glad
Hi all,
I may have found the cause of my Mac's problems: the coreaudiod process is
taking 30 to 35 percent CPU, and over 2.5gb of virtual memory (185mb of real
memory). I have things piped through Soundflower, but that shouldn't matter,
should it? I can't kill the process to see if that helps,

The reason I don't think it's internet-specific is because she has wireless and
her PC loads pages more quickly. If Safari could be removed and re-installed,

Well, it happens often which makes me believe it's either software-related or

Try using Safari Reader (Command-Shift-R) to read the NY Times article. (For
