        What iMac do your own? They haven't had a 13" iMac in a long long time. If its a Macbook with the older video chip, Intel GMA X3100 the even older GMA 500 series, I am not surprised its slow.

        So, what version of the OS, how much RAM and which version of SU is it? Do you have plenty of swap space on the hard drive (at least 2GB of empty unused space) as OS X really does not like having very little swap space and will really slow down as it approaches 0.

        The latest SU version is much snappier than the early 7 version even on my Mac Mini at home with the GeForce 9400M and 4gb of RAM.

        I created Dilbertville, sorry about that...

          hi mead, thanks for you answer.
          i bought it in December 2007, it's a white one.
          it's an OS-X 10.5.8, 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2.
          Ram 2GB 667MHz DDR2 and the monitorchip is a GMA X3100.
          I have 36 GB available.
          So as you said, it's more than probably that's monitor-chip fault.
          it's weird that su 7 (this is the version) doesn't work whilest cinema4d works ok.
          well, i should change the chip for working smooth with it.
          thanks a lot
