Ever since the last set of rolling restarts I can't stay on more than a few minutes without crashing, and even when connected it is lag-city. It doesn't seem to matter which client version I'm using either, from 1.18.5.3 through Windlight or Dazzle. Any suggestions? Anyone else with this experience?

Mac Book Pro 2GHz Intel Core Duo; 1GB 667 MHz RAM; RadeonX1600 256MB vRAM

Are you running 10.5.2 on your Mac?

Approx. 20 minutes to restore apperance (avatar and clothes)

I can tell you in my experience that SL runs better on 10.5.2 than on any previous MacOS/SL Viewer combination I've seen so far. Any specific reason you haven't upgraded to Leopard yet?

Yay!

My MacBook Pro crashing problems are gone. I'm not sure if it was the updates to SL or the upgrades Apple sent out, but my graphics are now gorgeous and I can stay online pretty much indefinitely.

My only problem in the last few days came when I was running SL, Photoshop, Mail, and Firefox. I slowed way down after maybe 2 hrs of actively working in SL and Photoshop at the same time. Not bad, considering what I was experiencing over the last months.

I do still clear my cache each time I log off. Better safe than sorry.
