[iBook] iPhoto keeps crashing, darn it!

[Jean-Paul Thuot]

Yes.  I and my wife are both having major issues with iPhoto, much the
same as you are describing.  It's been happening since the first Tiger
update, and may have even gotten worse with the second.  I really hope
this one can be fixed soon.

You might try iPhoto Buddy, which allows you to split up your library
into more manageable sizes.  This helps with loading times and overall
performance, in my experience.

Regards,

Jean-Paul
