Hi.

My macbook pro is getting slow after a session of multi table poker on stars. Do you guys have the same problem, and do anyone know if there is any solution to this problem? When i restart the computer, it works perfectly again.

Hey Codearmani!

I have a macbook myself, but I don't play with the mac software. I've installed Parallels :facepalm:

But I find it weird that your mac gets slow after a session. I've never had problems with it whatever I do. Never gets slower

I don't know if you have AppleCare but you could ask those guys?

Sorry I can't really help you with this issue.

Regards

for a price of a decent macbook you can buy as powerful PC(not a latop) and after a year or two upgrade it to twice as powerful.

Well sometimes it's not that simple. I never ever ever ever wanted a laptop! Desktop FTW!

But as a teacher I needed a laptop so I was kinda forced to buy one. And tbh I'm not going to buy a shabby windows machine.

Yearh works great. But after the session, it takes some time to get back to full speed.

I htink it is because your browser i creating lots of junk files from the game and after 6 games it becomes a large no. there it becomes slow , you should try the krojam cleaner fro the purpose of cleaning this junk files and getting back your systems speed...

wierd.

Try 'memory clean' (free app) or something.

Either way it doesn't sound good that a mac is slow after such a small task..... it should be a beast vs windows in general.
