Xslimmer

Looking to speed up your Mac and regain some HD space? of course you are. Well, it just so happens I know of the perfect app. Xslimmer offers it self up as a handy universal app. The way it works is by removing code and languages that your computer does not use. Most Universal apps themselves have many megabytes of code which are not being used. It can free up anywhere from 1 to 60MBs per app. I ran Xslimmer and it freed up 3.5GBs of space over 27 apps!  So why not give it a try. Download Xslimmer

    -Excerpt from site: Xslimmer not only frees space wasted by unused code, it can even increase your Mac’s performance. Some of our users have reported applications loading in almost half the time, because OS X does not need to analyze Xslimmed applications in search for the most suitable version of the code.

      This may not be revelant but i figured i’d post this anyway. If you’re using ubuntu 8.10 you may be in for some issues with the network manager. For some unknown reason it stops functioning. You will need to manually set you’re resolv.conf with your ISP’s DNS servers. That file is located in /etc/network/resolv.conf
