Photoshop Loading
Got a little update from MacWorld. In the update MacWorld posted a table ranking there as well…
As stated:
Before the OS X 10.4.8 update, a 2GHz iMac G5 beat the 2.66GHz Quad-Core Mac Pro at both the Photoshop and Word Scroll tests. After the update, the Photoshop numbers looked much more respectable, with the Mac Pro outpacing the iMac G5 by 28 percent in the Photoshop test. What’s more, the 2.16GHz iMac Core 2 Duo closing the speed gap enjoyed by its G5 counterpart from 35 percent to a dead even finish. Still, even after the OS X 10.4.8 update, the G5s wiped the floor with the Intel-based Macs on the Word test.

Well, they didn’t stated any about Macbook, so I will do some calculation myself on the loading speed of Adobe Photosop. I’ve tried both fresh loading and re-loading, very obvious re-loading took less than 30 seconds, it’s a good thing if ONLY fresh loading can do so. A fresh loading, which is boot into OS and waited for all the application/system files to load then click on Adobe Photoshop icon, it took me more than a minute.
With this timing (1+ minute) it’s so freaking slow in an Intel Core Duo 1.83GHz honestly. I was expecting a faster respond from this machine. My girl friend’s Acer Travelmate with Pentium Centrino 1.6GHz running faster than my Macbook, the loading speed of Macbook is somewhat similar with my old machine running Pentium 3 1GHz. What the heck? Or I’m just too much loading at the startup (Just one fan speed application on startup)?
