well, i guess the next logical question is: do you notice the slowdowns after said influence?
or, there's always the classic half-baked question: ever tried using Leopard...ON WEEEEEED?

It's leopard shouldn't it be catnip?

who said catnip, you got any go on sell us some catnip..(shake shake shiver shiver).

i guess that would explain the erratic mouse movements

LOL It happens regardless

well, bad news for me guys. i just tried stressing my system by opening all of the apps i have at once. at the same time, i was browsing with firefox (checking my email) when it suddenly crashed. i also noticed that the last app i clicked on to open (which was illustrator) didn't open. so i went to restart firefox, and i got this message: "The application "Firefox" cannot be launched. -10810" i've actually had this error before on random occasions. whenever it happens, it does this for all of my apps. so, for example, i tried to open illustrator again, and it gave me the same error. i then closed all of my apps and tried to open them again, and it gave me the same error for every single one. i tried to open a new finder window to test browsing some folders, but it crashed finder all together and all i could see was my dock. at this point i had to log out and log back in (using keyboard shortcuts, since i no longer had a menu bar). well, that sucked. and worse, now i have to start over my long-term stability test for these memory settings since i basically had to re-initiate a new leopard session by logging out/in. at this point, i am fantasizing about going back to tiger. it's not a good feeling. baaarrrgggghhh!! where's the damn catnip now!??!

same thing here, ahd alot of apps open and eyetv same crash 1080 on all apps, restarted and now ok again. seems like its not fixed to me. no mouse jumping to speak of the odd speed up but nothing in comparison to the default hypertransport settings. will try different hypertransport settings to see if i get any better results..

Firewalk

what we really need to know is if anyone has had this problem on a non amd system. Is it purely amd related or is it just a bug in leopard that will be fixed in the near future by apple?

well, i actually looked up the 10810 thing on google, and it's rare to say the least. apple dev's seem a bit clueless about it, so i'm guessing it's not common on "real" macs. there was a post on the apple forums that said this could have something to do with LaunchServices database needing to be rebuilt. the guy gave a link to an app that would do this, but i'm a little hesitant to try it out. i don't want to screw my install up anymore than it may already be. regardless, here's the post if you've got the cajones to try it yourselves (i have a feeling it wouldn't help though): http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1201327&tstart=60 (scroll down to MarkDouma's post for the app)

well I've run the app and nothing seems screwed but will let you know in about four hours time.
