[X Newbies] OSX Trim The Fat

[Mark_PHILIP at scdf.gov.sg]

Hi all,

With OSX being a derivative of UNIX, you can manually execute these system
scripts by using MacJanitor to do this. Search for the latest version at
VersionTracker.

Also, I used to run pre-binding scripts to optimize X performance by using
XOptimize, but I'm told that this is now not required in Jaguar as Jaguar
now pre-binds all X applications automatically. I still run it
occasionally...

In the past, I've noticed that pre-binding speeds up performance
significantly. In fact, on my Pismo 400 running 192MB RAM, the system runs
significantly faster than an iBook 600 with 256MB RAM. I only wish I had
1GB of RAM!

Maybe later...
Cheers,
Mark.
