Hey everyone!
On my mac, i run Photoshop elements 4 but have terrible performance issues.
Loading an image takes some time, and applying filters can take anywhere from 2 to 5 minuites which is mad.
On my PC desktop (shudders) i run Photoshop CS2 and it runs amazing. I can apply filters near instant!
Now i understand that Mac version of photoshop runs under rosetta, meaning it wont be as efficient but should it REALLY be that slow?
My mac currently has 512mb Ram, buy having 1Gb will that help a lot?
Current specs for both rigs (mac first pc second)
2.0Ghz Dual Core Intel Duo Core / 3.0Ghz P4
512mb DDR2 ram / 1Gb DDR ram
80gb HDD / 200GB HDD
