On the asrock I could compile code and watch a movie in xbmc while sabnzbd was extracting files without a problem (also probably because of the famous 224 line code patch to the linux kernel in 2010 wich drasticly improved multitasking) So it shouldn't freeze at all? If you asign a task to more cores, more of the system resources are used for a specific taks, so other tasks get less priority hence the freezes?Īt least this is how it worked on the asrock under ubuntu, by default if I remember correctly sabnzbd used multi core par/unrar, then I had hickups when watching video's in xbmc/kodi, so I set it to use 1 core only, this solved the hickups in xbmc/kodi under ubuntu lol. perhaps it can be activated by manually editing the sabnzbd config file with a text editor?īut it doesn't make sense, when mutlicore par is not activated wouldn't sabnzb (unrar and par task) use less resources because it only uses 1 core, instead of 2, so the system should have more "power/resources" 1 core free to do other tasks? the really slow atom processor in the asrock ion was better in handling multitasking with unrar & par, then the i5 processor in the macmini lol, go figure.īy default in sabnzb settings, multicore par is greyed out in osx btw, so it cannot be changed. I have the same issues on osx yosemite 10.10.1 on a macmini 2014, whenever sabnzbd starts extracting a downloaded file, my system gets really slow, chrome and other apps become unresponsive, xbmc/kodi stops playback and starts buffering for 30 secs or longer and the dreaded "spinning wheel" in osx shows when opening apps or browsing with chrome etc.Īs soon as the extracting finishes everything goes back to normal again, I never had these problems before on my asrock 330 ION wich was running ubuntu, on much slower hardware, before I bought the macmini as a replacement for my htpc. Should I just avoid this multicore par2 thing altogether with OS X?Įdited. I wanted to see it the multicore par2 could speed things up a bit when repairing. I have to mention that I am using Snow Leopard right now. I copied the relevant files to the SABnzbd+ app (app/Contents/Resources/osx/par2/) and entered -t0 in the parameter field under the switches page in SABnzbd+.ĭo I delete the par2-classic executable and just leave the par2 executable in the directory. And then the file is being listed as "Completed" without the par2 stage being finished.

Now I want to use multicore par2 but each file I download says " filename. it was the same place where the Linux multicore par2 can be found. Today I decided to look for the multicore par2 binary for OS X and found it via a link in the Wiki for SABnzbd+.

Firefox 3 with add-ons: ColorZilla, Firebug, Delicious Bookmarks, Feedly, Hellafox ( to control hellanzb on HTPC), Inquisitor, Quartz PDF Plugin, Searchbar Autosizer.Granted textures, antriscopic filtering and anti-aliasing settings aren't going to be maxed out at 1440x990 but you can still get a good session in with moderate settings.įor those curious, here are the first things I installed on my MBP: I've installed Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare and Spore is probably next. The 9400M is enabled by default, I have yet to test it with the 9600 GPU enabled. I'll leave the performance talk for a review after I get a chance to play with this more.Ĭall of Duty 4: MBP using GeForce 9400M (not the more powerful 9600) at 1440x990 with no AA and moderate AF. Most notably, Firefox is fast and there is no hesitation creating new tabs or scrolling. Naturally, this notebook is blindingly fast compared to the Air.

The new MacBook Pro gains the MacBook Air's styling and keyboard, of which I am a big fan. Portability won't be as big an issue for me in the future as I graduate in 47 days and won't need to take my laptop to classes anymore.Įnter the 2.53GHz MacBook Pro. I decided it was time for me to ditch the Air and get something more reliable and powerful.

Not to mention the whole core shutdown issue which required a little hack to get working properly, even with a software update Apple released a while back. A month or two later the microDVI port died, all the while the battery life had gone from 4 hours when new all the way down to a paltry 2 hours. The repair wasn't perfect and left the bezel bent up a bit. However in the recent months my feelings towards it have changed substantially.Īt first it fell 2 feet and I had to get the screen replaced.
It was a bit on the slow end but I enjoyed the portability. I did everything on it, with the exception of HD movie viewing which was outsourced to my HTPC setup. Ever since I purchased my MacBook Air 8 months ago, it has been my primary machine.
