Interesting... Your 2.7 gets about what my 2.5 does. Actually, a little worse in some cases. It should do a bit better but....what kind of ram? My 2.5 has PC3200-30330 ram…

Don't expect any of these machines to scale linearly in performance with clock speed. The determining factor here is definitely L2 cache and memory bandwidth, although the clock sp…

What I notice most of all is that there seems to be large variation even between machines of the same type. I ponder whether some G5 chips work better than others for reasons of…

How to relinquish control to the GUI? — #3

When you update the value of a progress indicator, it's marked as needing display the next time through the runloop (with setNeedsDisplay: YES). Your code, however, never returns …

He already said that, for some reason, an NSTimer is really impractical for what he's doing. I'd think that indicates a problem with the program's structure, but y'know, whatever. …
