A coworker of mine has a new 24" iMac (about 3-4 months old) running OS X 10.5.3 and she complained that it was acting very very slow. I ran a permissions repair and even Disk Warrior to try and fix any issues.
Finally I was looking at activity monitor and noticed that SyncServer was using almost all of her ram. She has one gig in the machine and it was using more than 750MB of memory with over 1.5GB of virtual memory. With the other system processes running she only had 75MB of RAM free. Obviously this is what's causing the sluggishness but I have no idea how to fix it.
She has .Mac turned off on the machine if that helps. However she does use iTunes for music and her iPhone.
Is there anything I can do to fix this issue myself?
Thanks,
Jenkin
