[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1576160, member: 56379"] I think doing just about anything on the computer has an impact. Keep an eye on the Activity Monitors numbers (swap files & page outs)...and when they get large (my rule of thumb)...swap file greater than 1.0-1.5 gig...reboot. Mac computers with more than 4gig of ram (8gig for example)...can go a much longer time between reboots. I think that you mentioned that your computer is maxed with 4gig of ram. Not really a big deal...rebooting is easy.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
