bloodykorin Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 After all I returned to Mountain Lion, working stable. Behaviour of Mavericks looks more like issue with SATA controller. IMHO. 0mar32, have you removed AppleHPET kext? I remembered about it only after installing ML.

bloodykorin Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 What about AppleHPET?? According to Google it should be removed on some motherboards. Blind leading the blind... Well, if you so smart, may be you tell us what we are doing wrong?

Removing AppleHPET kext is for USB problems, that is my knowledge on the matter Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/293494-mavericks-using-3gb-out-of-4gb-on-startup/page/2/#findComment-1972594 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightskreen Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Removing AppleHPET kext is for USB problems, that is my knowledge on the matter https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5470580 This basically explains everything. The new memory management model isn't a blunder, it just reduces swap usage on your hard drive which ACTUALLY slows the system down. Also, there's a small chance that you could just, well I don't know, get 6-8 GBs of ram if you're so worried about it. Just a thought.

bloodykorin Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Removing AppleHPET kext is for USB problems, that is my knowledge on the matter In my case it's also affects PCI slots, some times cards (Net & USB) not detected, sometimes internal Net adapter. I don't think that its memory problem, because mouse still moving, some GUI working, looks like system cannot access HDD, but nothing interesting at System Console(( Also I have MacBookPro late 2011, 4Gb RAM, it uses 3,9 almost all the time, but as user I see no problems, everything working fine....

Rampage Dev Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Why is that, if you have something to share then why don't you?! Because I already did. No one cared to listen. See first page.

bloodykorin Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Because I already did. No one cared to listen. See first page. Only thing you said on the first page was that large memory consumption is normal, and I agree with that, what about our problem? Any thoughts?

Rampage Dev Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 What issue?!?!?

gils83 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 hardware AMD/4 go ram uh? although Maveriks works with 3 GB of RAM 4 GB of available ScreenFlow + Parallels are 4 go!? no more and work very well with Lion 10.7 that works with 1 GB of RAM 4 GB of available ScreenFlow + Parallels reach 3.3 GB of RAM!? I especially think that the shared memory is already existing applications unopened unlike Lion 10.7 which combines the open position to business applications, video makes clear, I have not noticed any slowdown Maveriks I would even say better run Lion 10.7 or 10.6 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zekkkj23E6c Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/293494-mavericks-using-3gb-out-of-4gb-on-startup/page/2/#findComment-1972900 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodykorin Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 What issue?!?!? If there is another issue make a new tread else there is no issue. ....the system like reboots within the OS, everything closes and some apps get closed and some restart, sometimes it freezes all together with only the mouse moving. What about that? Memory leaks was only first idea because of mavericks way to use it all.

0mar32 Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 So as a follow up, I've increased my RAM to 8GB and still the problem persists, thought it was that GoogleSoftwareUp process so I disabled it, still the same problem! So after reading thoroughly, it seems that my problems is graphics card related! Anyone here ever heard of the Fermi Freeze, that's what I have, unfortunately, up until now all the solutions I've tried have decreased the frequency of the crash/Fermi Freeze but it is still happening. If anyone has anything to add please do Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/293494-mavericks-using-3gb-out-of-4gb-on-startup/page/2/#findComment-1974391 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone has anything to add please do I had the same problem with the infamous fermi freeze. Use the app from here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/291300-fermi-freeze-investigation/?do=findComment&comment=1939732 I haven't had an issue since using the freezefix app. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/293494-mavericks-using-3gb-out-of-4gb-on-startup/page/2/#findComment-1975306 Share on other sites More sharing options...
