hi, javid -- i was writing to suggest that you try 10.3.9, and i just saw your last post!
we've observed a substantial slowdown in rendering performance with our Batik-based Java application when running under 10.4.0 vs 10.3.9. (sorry, no stats to offer, but the slowdown was so bad that we decided to stick with 10.3.9 for now). i'm no mac guru, but i understand that 10.4 includes some major changes to how OSX does graphics... is anyone else out there running 10.4.x and NOT seeing a performance degradation? sincerely, -- Scott A.
