Closing all un-needed programs didn&rsquo;t help. I ran several Mac utilities on my system, rebooted and so on and so forth.</p> <p>Still no good.</p> <p>There&rsquo;s 8GB of RAM in my (latest model - fall 2010) white MacBook and that really sped things up when it replaced the stock 2GB. It was very frustrating.</p>
