Energia startup time : mac

[clyvb 2]

First time Energia startup on my mac pro (10.6.8) is around 45+ seconds.

It is a big executable, but I am wondering if there any system settings or options I need to put in place ?

 

thanks

Hi clyvb,

 

Couple of questions:

- Is this with version 0101E0006?

- What is your version of OS X?

- Did you have the same issue with the previous version?

- Was your LaunchPad plugged in?

 

I don't have access to a clean OS X machine but will see if I can set something up over the weekend.

This is a common issue I've been experimenting with all Processing-based IDEs, either Arduino, Wiring, chipKIT MPIDE, Maple IDE and Energia.

 

Please refer to the thread Mac Arduino application launch time on the Arduino forum where the following causes are discussed:

Robert, Rei,

thank you for the suggestions it is fixed.

I'm just confirming for others the setup and what fixed it.

 

I am using the new 0101E0006 although about->Energia still says January though like the last version ?

, osx version 10.6.8, 4gb 1067 Mhz , 2.66 GHz core2duo. mac book pro.

I have had issues with all versions and it's the same if launchpad is plugged in or not.

 

Once I excluded Energia.app from Sophos startup scan, it starts almost instantly.

in sophos->preferences select "on-access scanning" and then "excluded items"

add /Applications/Energia.app to the list using the '+' in the lower left corner.

 

Perhaps consider enabling scan now and again and after a fresh version download. I'd hate to

create an attack vector here.

 

I guess sophos keeps re-scanning it on a fresh start. I don't know why firefox or

any of my other apps don't have the same issue. Something for the sophos forum.

Happy to hear you root caused it. Let us know if the sophos forum brings any answers.
