Hi,

having "grown up", as it were, on Solaris, my gut reaction to "performance"
issues is "use dtrace", which, happily, OS X has (to some extent).

I'm afraid I can't supply anything specific myself here (tempted as I am),
but I'll point to James C McPherson's post as a starter:
https://www.darktable.org/2012/05/darktable-and-solaris-it-just-workstm-and-there-are-some-nifty-benefits-too/
(though latency from Germany is truly awful, YMMV, be patient :-).

(if you're on a recent release of OS X, you'll probably need something like
this first: http://internals.exposed/blog/dtrace-vs-sip.html)
