Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

but i think the system is running a number of little apps behind the scenes too - so it might not be a good idea to kill everything running.

<<
Hint: if you hit apple or command + 5 you will get a vertical mini monitor, and in VIEW 
menu, set it to "show CPU monitors on top of other windows" and you'll always know 
what your cpu is doing. Say your computer gets sluggish, have a glance, click on the 
monitor and peek at what's hogging your CPU. I had a favorite widget that was sucking 
the life out of my CPU. I replaced it with a more efficient one.>>

I second this post whole hardedly! I opened up the Activity Monitor and couldn't believe the driver apps that were running and/or 
constantly popping on and off.
Now I disable all the things listed by Man and it certainly helps!
