    RightZoom causing bad performance for specific Mac OS X user

      Hi!

       

      See original thred here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4100563#4100563

       

      (I don'T get the whole read-only thing now, anyways)

       

      So basically, talking with support at Adobe we have figured out that this was caused by something for my User Account ONLY. Testing it on a different account seemed to solve the problem.

       

      Now, What do you think could cause such a slow down, any tools to help monitor that kind of stuff, or what would be slowing down everything?

       

      Thanks!

          Alright!

           

          Fixed it! Turns out after investigating every process through Activity Monitor (CPU), I found out that a little application called RightZoom was causing the problem. So I have uninstalled it and Photoshop is back to its normal behaviour. No more Freezing Panels, performance crashes, etc.

           

          Wonderful!

           

          I'm putting it up here for people to see this if they experience a similar problem!

           

          Have a good day!
