I'm typing this on my family's 1 Ghz emac running 10.3.9 with 640 MB of RAM. It's been a while since I used it much, but right now I'm house sitting for my folks for a few days. Maybe my memory is just faulty (I used to have a 1Ghz 12" powerbook), or maybe I've gotten too used to my G5, but I'm finding this machine very very slow. Safari takes many (6? 7? 8?) bounces to open, webpages load slowly, and just switching between folders in iphoto is nightmarish. It seems like everything hangs before executing.
A 1 Ghz G4 with 640 RAM isn't blazing, but these are simple tasks, and the response time shouldn't be this bad, should it?? I know my PB wasn't like this, and my brother tells me that this emac does seem to be slowing down. I've repaired permissions, done the PRAM, all the usual basic maintenance. Any ideas?
