I haven't upgraded either. I usually wait for a point release to fix the glaring bugs they always introduce. But I'm guessing they've broken legacy screensavers even worse than they did before. It never properly terminates and deallocs each ScreenSaverView, so after you wake it up, legacyScreenSaver (Wallpaper) will continue to use megabytes or even gigabytes of memory. Engage the screensaver again, wake it, and it will have added even more memory. At least it does this with my screensaver, which plops down random images via CALayer animations. I might bite the bullet and install 15 sooner instead of waiting. I was hoping they would have fixed legacyScreenSaver, or at least introduced a new framework we could base screensavers on. I don't want to use any of their goofy wallpapers that turn into screensavers. -- Steve Mills Drummer, Mac geek _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
