For Christmas I received Snow Leopard the Missing Manual, in it it states, as to why SnoLeo shuts down faster than previous versions of OS X: "to save time, Snow Leopard doesn't quit programs the way it used to - it kills them. It checks to see if they have unsaved documents or un-backed-up preference setting changes first, of course. But if not, it issues a kill command to them, which terminates them instantly" Note that this isn't just when you shutdown, but whenever you Quit any program. Surely this can't be correct? I know with some of my stacks, if I get into a situation, like an infinite loop, and I need to kill the process, that I end up with a whole bunch of open sockets or DB server connections because the handlers to clean all these up haven't run. If SnoLeo kills programs, does this mean in situations where you haven't changed preferences or a document (and I can imagine plenty of situations where that isn't going to happen) cleanup routines are no longer going to be run in Rev? _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
