Firstly I thought that too, but seems to me the slowest part is the file
server. Those good-for-nothing genie effects or shades are fast enough,
but
to show a plain contents of a folder in a Finder window, or to open an
Open/Save panel, wow! I can write whole article on my NeXTstation
meanwhile
;))))
How rude you are.
20 seconds to put a file to the Trash is an incredible achievement for a
PowerPC G4 400 MHz. (Maybe that's due to the fact that putting a file to
the Trash causes the launch of the SpeechFramework (which launches the
HotSpot Engine of course just in case) to announce that: "This file is
very excited to be put to the trash using Mac OS X and OpenGL. And
please don't trust the MHz myth. Never..."). Unfortunately the sound
volume is set to mute during this part of the process.
Anyway, some good news were posted on the project-builder list, Obj-C++
will apparently be back in 10.1. It's just so sad that it comes back
after I switch all my code to C.
I shouldn't have switched back for a while to Mac OS 9, it always puts
me in a bad mood.
