Progress...well, some...
Aug. 4th, 2014 01:01 amThe desktop iMac is running noticeably faster. I don't think it's just that I cleared off 100 GB worth of files; the biggest improvement came in the first 30 GB which also happened to represent lots (and lots and lots) of little files.
It still wanders off into its own version of Never-Never Land from time to time, but when it's not doing that, the responsiveness is downright zippy. Alas, the wandering off seems most prone to happening when searching for a file, which means I'm right back where I started 7 or so hours ago: trying to find a font I'm certain I purchased this past Spring, one that I need to use for one of the two pressing projects.
Fun fun, joy joy. Not.
