howdy, scottt!
how can I help you today?
scottt
howdy!
i have a client that's having a problem:
he's using eclipse on a mac
but having frequent hangs of ADT
10:55 AM
scottt
apparently related to background tasks
10:55 AM
scottt
and ideas of fix or someone who might know of some potential solution(s)?
Mark M.
besides getting a faster Mac? :-)
if the client has a lot of projects open, close them
scottt
he says the problems started in february
Mark M.
February might have been R21 -- I forget when that came out
scottt
yeah, that's what i was thinking
Mark M.
but beyond closing projects, having a seriously fast CPU (e.g., I have a quad-core i7), and having gobs of RAM, I have no specific suggestions
I definitely have no Mac-specific suggestions, as it's been at least 18 months since I last messed with Eclipse on the Mac
scottt
that's pretty much the only advice i had for him too. i dont dev usinf a mac either
Mark M.
the client can always try StackOverflow or similar fora
scottt
it was great seeing you at AndevCon. i prob won't make it until the next spring one
11:00 AM
Mark M.
yeah, it sounds like Boston will be a keeper, though perhaps at a different hotel
scottt
oh cool, although a southeast city would be even better
Mark M.
I think they want to establish a standing presence in one city
I'm not in the conference organizing business, so I can't say whether that's a good idea or not
anything else quick?
scottt
nope. thx for your time. enjoy your weekend
Mark M.
you too!
