Re: Typing in field grinds to near halt

[Sannyasin Sivakatirswami]

Well I have yet to do a long typing test, but if the player is set to a 
QT movie, as soon as I open the stack my CPU activity monitor peaks out 
completely... and this is on a G4 with 1Gig Ram. It drops back to about 
half, but then as asoon as I start typing in the field with a fairly 
normal speed, something strange happens: the CPU monitor starts jumping 
up to 75% usage... just as a result of typing...if I do something silly 
like paste huge chunks of text over and over again into the field, i 
can get the CPU monitor to peak right out, full. but, I'm not able to 
emulate failure to update the field as I type... it remains fully 
responsive, inserting text as fast as I can type.

meanwhile the user who complained of a slow down has a G4 with only 512 
K RAM... I asked him simply to quit the application and re-open it... 
the slow down went away.

The QT audio file that is being play by the player is a 64 megabyte

Can you try the same task on your machine? If the situation is 
otherwise similar, then memory is a likely culprit (although not 
certainly).

Could be... with OSX... what should I tell me beta user to do to test 
this? I'm a bit spoiled with a G4 with 1 gig RAM, so hard to 
emulate..
