That's an excellent development sam. How about osx? I'm not the only one to have a problem with option windows & more creating the spinning beach ball lasting several minutes. Any answers for this one? The ram is more stable though vm still runs reasonably high which has affected I think 2 people who have posted in last few days. I first noticed it (spinning ball on option windows) on the late 4.1 betas. But it can also happen in other areas such as deleting a file from the dwnld list & others I can't think of off-hand at this time of day.

Despite having a reasonable amount of ram. LW doesn't seem to do a very good job of handling it for osx. Spinning beach balls are a sign of major problems for any osx app. Wouldn't you agree? Or isn't mac's java up to it?
