[QUOTE="orango, post: 1775627, member: 380080"] Yes! I think sadly you are on to something. So when one upgrades the Mac gradually the "load" becomes more and more heavy for the cpu making it harder and harder for it to run fast enough due to the demands of higher speed on updated software. Is that it? Hmmm. I thought the 16 GB ram and SSD would kind of compensate..... But no?? So a mac from 2011 even with that spec of RAM and SSD could not handle the latest software? Ok so is there any way of sofware limiting the cpu processes effectivly to avoid this? For example set ut Vmware Fusion and not allow it by terminal commands to run at more than 90% capacity of the cpu? [/QUOTE]
