why is the new update so bad (1,23,4 12908) for my mac

I was obliged to update to the new version
my computer is a mac power PC 2,16 Hz G5 mac OS X version 10,5 - ATI X600
it used to run real fine but now as soon as i teleport somewhere it takes ages before the textures start to look at something other than prims. my avi can't walk, and ... well in fact nothing work propely
please if someone could help me it would be great!! i can't even think of building, or just have fun with my friends on line(((
thanksXXxxx

when ever you get a new update, it clears your cache down to nothing, and the textures all have to be restored to the client side of the game, and this takes time to get back. Hence whenever you land it its not only looking at that texture, but storing it for later, so when you land there again it will fast rez. Same thing usually happens when you go somewhere new.
From what i understand about TP, its harder now due to the amount of prims av's are wearing, try priming down a bit and see if that helps.

If you liked an older version better, you can go to this link and restore the older version, by first removing the new version you have now, rebooting your PC, go to this site and get whatever version you like. I prefer 1.22.1, seems to work best for me.

Hope this helps

Turn off Run Multiple Threads if you're using it. If you have no idea what that is then ignore this post. When I have that on textures won't load for 2-5mins.
