Perhaps, you're right, Growl hadn't exhibited any signs of instability before 
being rather steady, smooth and predictable. It was just curiosity on my part. 
As for newer OSX, yes, there're reasons behind running the default OS X my Mac 
came with: the creativity and productivity suites such as iWork'09 and iLife'09 
that are older and have better set of features with regard to functionality 
than what Apple currently offers and I don't like the current direction they 
took, the software unfortunately is incompatible with the newer OS's or is 
prone to multitude of issues running on them. Besides, the system is faster and 
it's an important factor (I actually downgraded from Mavericks two years ago) 
and so is number of small features that work better on Lion. Also, Lion is 
listed as minimum requirement to run the current version of Growl. I might 
consider running several OS's alongside each other as I still depend very much 
on my current workflow, which may be broken if OS X is upgraded, but not until 
I find time and money for full-scaked upgrade of its upgradeable components. 
Thank you for your input.
