Current Verdict on Snow Leopard

[Jeff Carrion]

Well, it’s early 2010 what’s the verdict now everybody?

We have the oportunity to upgrade everything we have to FCS3 and Snow, what do you say, is it finally time to just dive in with both feet?

We’re not running Snow Leopard on any machines at this time. Still seem to be too many issues with multiple drivers out there. We only have SL running on our SAN machine as it fixed some issues with ethernet connectivity.

But all our FCP systems continue to run OS 10.5.8 very smoothly.

Snow Leopard is revealing itself to be pretty appalling as far as I’m concerned. I bought a new machine, MacPro Quadcore with Snow Leopard pre-installed and then installed all my pro apps – FCS2, After Effects – from the discs and I’m finding it very, very buggy.

Loads of crashes, frequently running out of memory and often very slow – and I bought this machine specifically to speed up my editing.

It could be that I’ve got unlucky and it’s a hardware issue, but right now, I am seriously unimpressed.

Neil hi,

same case over here…very buggy…in our studio snow leopard got nicknamed windows….
as far as I can see one major problem with snow leopard is its name…who wants an operating system that is frozen by default…no wonder my new mac keeps freezing all the time…I guess its time to go back to leopard…

My iMac would crash (hardcore kernel panics included) all the time with clean install of 10.6., but 10.6.1 solved all stability problems for me. I can go on days with FCP 7.0.1 and Adobe CS4 without crashing.
