So far I have not had problems with XQuartz, but similar slow-down occasionally happens while using tcltk-applications with the Aqua version of Tcl/Tk (ActiveTcl 8.6.x binary distribution). Unfortunately I have not been able to create a reproducible example.
Anyhow, if XQuartz update won’t help, maybe it is worth checking if there is any difference while using R.app or command-line R. - - - Prof Brian Ripley <rip...@stats.ox.ac.uk> wrote: > Just checking: which version of XQuartz? > > Although I have not experienced any problems, people recommended updating to > 2.7.5 and I got prompted to do that yesterday (it was released last week). > > On 20/11/2013 11:52, John Fox wrote: >> Dear Jonathan, >> >> I'm afraid that I don't know why you're experiencing this problem.
