Re: Snow Leopard, Auto-save, Etc: Binary for Testing
Hello back again, I have tested the SL build on a bigger document (around 120 pages) and have experienced no crashes so far. Unfortunately, we have been informed about a bad side effect of this fix: http://marc.info/?l=lyx-devel&m=125777684408838&w=2 We have to investigate further. Please be careful while using the test binary. Jürgen Wow, indeed. Never hit the spellcheck button. I tried it, too. That's really crashing the whole MacOSX session. I get a blue screen and then my usual login-dialogue-window just as if I restarted my mac. Johannes.

Re: Snow Leopard, Auto-save, Etc: Binary for Testing
Hello, Used that binary for quite some time now (on SL 10.6.1) with moderate file size (<30 pages). I set the autosave to 1 min and noticed no slowdown, in fact it worked flawlessly. Great work!

Also please report whether the autosave slowdown is bearable, or any strange behaviour that might occur.

Re: Snow Leopard, Auto-save, Etc: Binary for Testing
I've been running it for a few hours and it works fine here, thanks! It continually uses a few per mills CPU even when hidden, but not more than 1.6.4.1 . Cheers! Christian
Re: Snow Leopard, Auto-save, Etc: Binary for Testing
This is great. Now I will finally upgrade to Snow Leopard.
Re: Snow Leopard, Auto-save, Etc: Binary for Testing
Thank you for the binary! I did a small test and had no autosave pseudo-crashes. Sometimes I imagine that my overall system runs slower.
Snow Leopard, Auto-save, Etc: Binary for Testing
Just reposting this with a more informative title. The binary is here: Original Message Subject:Re: LyX 1.6.4.1 and Snow Leopard Date: Wed, 04 Nov 2009 11:29:05 +0100 From: Jürgen Spitzmüller To: lyx-users@lists.lyx.org Followup-To:gmane.editors.lyx.general OK, a binary for testing is now available here: ftp://ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/LyX-1.6.5svn-Snow-Leopard-Test.app.zip Please test if this fixes your problems on Snow Leopard and report back. Also please report whether the autosave slowdown is bearable, or any strange behaviour that might occur. If the fix proves to do what it ought to (i.e., prevent the pseudo-crashes on autosave), we will release a patched 1.6.4.2 specifically for Snow Leopard soon. The binary is not such a patched 1.6.4, but rather a snapshot of the current 1.6.5svn trunk. It should be stable, but be advised it's not "officially" declared stable. Jürgen
