The latest versions of Safari, iTunes, and OpenOffice all seem to be doing better though - nice to see improvements from software vendors in this area.įolks have said that OSX 10.6.5 helps with memory management so that may also be why I am seeing improvements on various apps. Safari and iTunes can seriously bloat, as can OpenOffice. It seems the more RAM we get the more that applications tend to waste (or worse, leak). Given I have an iMac I was never concerned about "battery performance", but mainly with memory usage. I've also noticed less annoying ads (but that could have been accomplished with ClickToFlash). So far so good - I no longer get Flash doing the "memory hog" thing in Activity Monitor because now Flash runs when I need and I can quit it when I don't. Open a Finder window then select Applications, now open Utilities (or search for the app Adobe Flash Player Install Manager) Open Adobe Flash Player Install Manager > click Uninstall You’ll. I recently took Gruber's advise on and removed the Flash plugin from my Mac with a keyboard shortcut to load the current page in Chrome using its built-in Flash Plugin when I need Flash.
