So what part are we talking about that's slow? I'm on a dual 2.5 G5 w/4GIG ram and my P6 application loads in 24 sec. That's with 26Gig worth of content. My test rendering is brisk and my final renders are better than ever speed wise. Finding files, quick as can be. I guess I'm not seeing what others are having problems with. My dual gig G4 isn't much slower. What I'm trying to say from my perspective is that yes, there used to be problems with P5 and first version of P6. But, since the sr1 I'm finding just about all major issues cleared up on MAC. -jay
