That's the undercore reason =D. Can't work with a piece of shit that lets 30Mb of available ram while 60% remaining is wired for "future" user interactions. There is a simple solution buy 24Gb of ram for your macs and you will notice the difference.... until your mac bitches again and eats all of that as well... because the user MAYBE & just MAYBE want to use information previously stored....

If you're using an older OS X version (10.3.x or 10.4.x) you'll also see a lot of warnings on sites like Youtube about your browser not being supported. It works just fine, just go to about:config in Firefox and edit the entry for general.user.agent.extra.firefox to 3.6.15 and save your changes. For Flash, just Google how to fake the version reported, it requires a patch but is pretty easy to do. Then your Flash Player 9 will report as 10.1 and everything will work perfectly, even on an older mac. I have a machine with 10.3.9 which runs flash full screen from youtube better than 10.5.8 machine with the current firefox and safari browsers with genuine 10.1 Flash Player.

I do see Adobe putting some serious resources behind it though, so let's hope things get better. Why and how much Flash is falling is open to debate.

Adobe tried to develop a software when Macromedia flash announced v2. I guess it was adobe go live or something like that, it sucked at the time. So they paid the amount and purchased Macromedia, now former Macromedia products sucks. Dreamweaver version 8 processor usage %10-%20 at max. Adobe Dreamweaver CS processor usage %53 during idle, i wont even mention crashes. Worse with Flash Player. Every version gets worse and worse. I guess benchmarks says all. Adobe you do not have to be all around and everyday more people hates from your products. All Macromedia products are falling apart since Adobe purchased Macromedia.

Anyway - from what I've seen redrawing is an issue, but I haven't seen or heard of nothing actually displaying. Does it work with another config? Ariel Hi,
