Spaces transition rather slow

[Arne]

Hello,

I just got my leopard copy this day (when the countdown on the apple webpage still showed 5 hours left 🙂 ) and noticed, that the transitions don't run very smooth, especially when I'm changnging to or coming from the Spaces overview (F8).

I'm running Leopard on a 2 Ghz C2D MacBook with 2gig RAM. Do you think they will get Spaces faster in future, so that it will run as quick as Exposee?

it looks like you've got enough ram... maybe delete unnescasarry apps..

I have just noticed, that Safari was showing some fragments when changing Spaces, so I restarted it and the problem was solved. I saw the fragments earlier already, when I started Dashboard. Might be a Safari-specific problem

Might be. I never use Safari, but I use Spaces - the transitions are silky smooth on my machine (and I'm using less than 2GBs of my RAM) ...

I'll start off by blaming the GMA950. 🙄

I don't think it's the GMA950, because now after I restarted Safari it works as smooth as it should.

One very speed-limiting factor: Is Spotlight indexing finished yet?
