well Dan I insist that finderfixer has helped me a lot,
FinderFixer is fine. It's not ResEdit.
I don't know if less finder memory allocated would give faster performance, ? would it ??
Doubtful. By default the Finder initially allocates less than a megabyte of RAM. Giving it even less is the cyber equivalent of cutting your desktop off at its knees. It would loose track of mounted disk volumes, etc.
Some people, on older memory poor machines, that rarely use Finder, have found that quitting it altogether can be useful. But the performace gain is probably <1%. This just from the system having one less idle application running.
