MacBook pro with all applications open in Expose!

This is why the mac rocks! My macbook pro 2.2Ghz was working smoothly even after opening all the Applications in the application folder and utilities folder. There are about more than 150 Applications open right now in expose.

4GB ram

All the apps were launched at the same time. Not one-by-one

BS on the more than 150 apps, I count 99 exactly, and a couple without activity markers beneath them. I recently did the same with my 8-Core Mac Pro, and I opened up every single app and apps within folders in my application folder, and it took about 20 minutes for everything to boot up, and then I had maybe 2 dozen bouncing apps in the dock, for apps that need confirmation to open to a main screen, etc.

Hey, this is burnflare92 here. Here are some stats when that shot was taken:

Ram usage: 3.8GB/4.0GB
Swap: 2.8GB/3.0GB

Took 10 minutes for all the applications to open at first. Then things were pretty smooth

Guys, it is possible. Over at the MacCast, Adam Christianson had all his apps running out of trying a thing with Quick Look, but ended up opening all his apps. It worked, he said, but took a while to open them all up.

Impressive, but I wonder how bad that hard drive was thrashing, even with all of those apps open. I would've loved to see how much virtual memory was being used while all these apps were open.

Impressive.
I want a mac...
Linux is still pretty good though, what with open source and all.

David Fiore says:

he noted 3.8 of 4.0g of ram used and 2.8 of 3.0 page file. Virtual mem was virtually 100% used.

You just created at least 4GB of cache and plist files right there! This screen is EPIC! Good job! I can't wait till this Powerbook fails and I can upgrade to a MBP (almost 5 years and counting!).

10 minutes for them all to open? Ha... Like I have 10 minutes to wait around for THAT to happen.

uberfu says:

WTF Ever!

Load up some real Apps that actually require system resources and NOT the mini bitty Apps that come native w/ OSX_

Crank up the Adobe master Colelction and the Final Cut Studio Suite_

Preview and TextEdit and Activity Monitor don't count_

Get a life - your 15 minutes of fame are over!
Posted 19 months ago. ( permalink )

uberfu says:

Have the Adobe or Final Cut Suite of Apps running and then come tell us that your system resources are not suffering and that everything is still smooth_

Also - since I assume some of what you are counting are probably "background" Apps - why not provide the rest of us that you are trying to impress with an actual LIST OF APPS you have running - oh exuberant one!

yeah, and how about starting windows with fusion and running all your windows apps in unity mode. that would be the killer-mac argument ;)

I used to play the same way when I got my Titanium PowerBook G4 867MHz with 768MB RAM running Panther, it was smooth too. Mac OS X rocks all the way!
