I have noticed recently that occasionally I am unable to smoothly move my cursor using my trackpad on my Mini. The cursor either does not move, moves very slowly or "jerks" with sudden movements and then no movement. My initial assumption was that something was taking up time on the system so I opened the Activity Monitor (when I could finally get the cursor to the spotlight icon) to see what was taking up the cpu time. According to the Activity Monitor nothing was taking up very much time and, except for when I am editing photos, I rarely have any application running other than my browser and the normal OS apps.
Rebooting solves the problem although sometimes only for a short time when the problem reappears. I can find no real cpu usage, no real memory usage and I began to worry that I had some malware on my system. However when I ran Malware Bytes it found nothing. Can anyone suggest what might be going on on my system?
