Good afternoon,

Through the generous assistance of folks on this list I am using an Applescript to get Safari to run and then sequentially load three websites at 1 minute intervals.

This is working well, with an exception.[...]

In addition to the replies you already got. You have two problems, not one. 98% RAM is one problem, and that's Safari's problem, it's a RAM eater and there is little you can do to prevent the problem except relaunching it from time to time. And, as has been said, there are other browsers which are just as bad. 98% CPU is another problem, which depends strongly on the site the browser is logged into. In my experience 98% CPU may come from an ambitious Flash animation or program. I have visited sites which look normal but which require 40% of the CPU for them only. Open three pages and your G4 is down. Here, too, there is little you can do except (maybe) checking you've installed the latest version of the plugin.


Good luck,
Emmanuel
