I have run Flash on Mac's since version 2, and I have never had cause
to complain about performance.. The player performance before 8 left
a lot to be desired, but the IDE has always been fine. The 8 IDE
runs beautifully on my Dual 2.0ghz G5., and the 8 player/plugin is a
huge improvement.
These days RAM is more likely to be a bottleneck for performance than
the processor.... I have 1.5gigs and miss the extra bit i had on my
old Mac(G4).

Hey there,
Sorry if this hardware question is a bit off topic but it is
getting to be a real nightmare for me. I switched to a Mac about 4
years ago and have since used a Power Mac G4 500, a Ti Power Book,
an eMac for a bit while a machine was in the shop (one of the bad
screen ones), an iMac G4 1.25GHz and now i am using am iMac G5
(1.8GHz, 1G RAM).
I find that the Flash IDE is terribly slow on OS X and pretty much
brings the machine to its knees even if it is the only thing
running. The G5 I have now I am wondering if it is having some of
the associated power supply and main board problems that are
cropping up now with this model. The fan runs almost constantly if
i am running Flash IDe, converting Video to FLV, etc.
Basically, how is the IDE working for everyone else out there? Are
Windows users fairly happy with performance, responsiveness? What
about the Mac users? Anyone finding things a tad too slow for them?
Thanks for any input.
