Disable Quartz Extreme on older Macs
Authored by: Imidazole on Jul 28, '04 12:03:16PM
Well, I went ahead and did this on my 1.33ghz 17" PB, just to see if it was worth any kind of performance gains... and heres my review:

*Desktop Manager and Fast User Switch no longer do the cube animation
*Expose still does all of the same animations, except now they are SLOW AND CHOPPY
*Minimizing to the dock animation looks pathetic and choppy

No performance gains what-so-ever on a 'new' machine. I'd stick to doing this on older ones, as the article states.
