I vaguely recall asking this question before and Kirk responded in his usual prompt manner. However, I cannot find his reply despite searching the forum. Retirement is great but it also has drawbacks such as forgetting things!!!!!
The problem is I have Beach balling on a 27" (early 2019) which has 64Gb Ram, 3 Tb HDD. Mac OS Sonoma version 14.5. PM Plus Ver 6.0 Build 7102 (796dd4a).
I do appreciate that the iMac is, like myself getting on in life but I also have a newer MacBook Air (8Gb) with a similar problem. The MacBook may be struggling because I was foolish enough the skimp on memory when I should have went for at least 16Gb, lesson learned!
on the iMac 27" my PM Plus setting are currently Disk Cache size 3000
Reserve at least 3000
Memory cache size = 10% (6553 Mb)
Any suggestions re the above would be very welcome.
Thanks Frank
