Hmm ... I'm using 3.2 gamma with all updates on a 400 meg PowerBook
OS X right now and doing almost nothing *but* Morphic programming.
Its' not super-speedy, but performance is OK except when I try to run
too many things at once (like putting "self halt" in a method that
gets called every 20 milliseconds from a separate thread; very droll
:-(. The one place where I would like more performance is when
trying to playback a previously recorded event stream; sometimes the
playback just can't keep up if there's something else going on. But
that's also somewhat of an edge case. What performance problems are
you seeing?
