My MacBook runs Flex fine, although I use the Eclipse plug-in and not
Flex-Builder. The only weird problem I seem to have is that every so
often the Keyboard shortcuts do not work so I have to save via the
file menu and can't launch certain functions with my fn keys. I am
not sure if this is a mac thing or an Eclipse thing. I haven't
tested Flex on the PC since NOV.

I've been thinking about switching a lot of my development work
over to the Mac, but the performance of FlexBuilder has been
disappointing. I'm comparing FB on my new Mac Mini (1.83ghz core
duo, 1 gig RAM) against a more than 3-year-old PC (3.1 ghz P4, 1
gig RAM). Startup and compile times are comparable, but the Mac
version doesn't keep up with my typing as well as the PC does. If
I start typing random characters, it actually takes several seconds
for the Mac to catch up. On the PC, the keyboard response is close
to instantaneous. (I'm trying the same keyboard on both
machines.) I do not notice these sorts of keyboard buffering
delays on other Mac applications.
Anyone else noticing similar slowness on the Mac?
