Well I'm a quite new user to RB (and a windows user at that), so I'm not exactly in a position to speak. However, I can only assume that those of your that have been with RB for years have also been with Mac OS 8 and 9 as well as X. The real question, I think, should be: "Did RB cause these issues, or did the Newer Mac OS did?" Then point the finger at the right place to get these issues resolved.

Even in the windows world, if you compare today's VB.NET with VB 3 there's a pathetic different in size and execution speed (and to think, at the time, the 32 bit world was suppose to give is speed among other things). In that case should we blame VB or the New Windows OS? Know what I'm saying?

These issues that are being talked about here in this series of thread, i'm not sure I'd throw all of them on RB's back. I'd start to consider if Mac OS doesn't have any flaws in it's designs on such areas as resource management, tasking and the likes. Because to me, these descriptions seem to be OS related (if not anything else, a different mode of instantiation might be needed for objects to be streamlined in the OS.

As far as I can tell, these issues don't seem to exist in the windows version, that could be because of OS itself too. So I'm not saying you're not right in what you are saying, maybe it is RB, but to me, the issues themselves seem to talk more about the OS rather than the programming language. I just like the fingers to be pointed in the right directions ;-) hehe.

Thanks for the reply. Guess I'll have to go to G8 or 9 with 3 or 4 1 TG processors :( I'm surprised that the entire NUG list isn't screaming about these problems. I'm even further surprised that there isn't really a lot of these complaints on the Feedback site.

Because many don't think it would help..

RS is aware of some of many the problems already... and if they ever start using RB200* internally for IDE development they will quickly see all the strange little bugs and quirks of the new IDE... as well as the speed issues...

A few months I back bought a Dual Core PowerMac G5 2.3 GHz and 20" widescreen monitor to deal with some of the issues...
