This is great and I am using it on OS X and it works just fine. It can
This is brilliant! Are you using the Java version of the VM? Did you have to install X window support or is this part of OS X?
Could you please send me a screenshot?
be a little sluggish when switching tabs sometimes.
I already wondered nobody complained about it :-). The playlist is _terribly_ slow. The over all speed highly depends on the server (at least on "real" computers - PDAs are a different story): pretty often I find the program waiting for a server response. Eg. the jerky scrolling in the album/artist/* list: I only fetch a screen full of information at a time as I had to wait up to 30 seconds on my Zaurus when I tried to fetch them all at once :-). This information is then cached for a minute, purged on tab changes. I might add a "big memory, fast cpu" option where I'm keeping stuff longer and grabbing bigger chunks at a time.
BTW: Speed improved quite a lot for me, when I switched to MySQL for the db backend (about 30% faster responses). I therefore decided to use it constantly though my old MySQL 3.23.x renders the browse "New music" unusable...
I can't really tell if it's the VM or the app, but I don't mind. Keep up the good work, as I am looking forward to more refinements/enhancements. But keep it lightweight. That's what makes it so great to begin with.
I will keep it lightweight enough to have it run on a pda. This should be pretty lightweight on most multi GHz powered computer. :-)
