Like many Mac users, I’ve been pretty pleased Google’s desktop app. There are plenty of times when it has played Spotlight right off the park. However, recently I have noticed a deterioration in my Macbook’s performance accompanied by increasingly frequent visits from the spinning beach ball of death.
You know what’s coming don’t you?
Tonight I un-installed Google Desktop search and almost immediately my Macbook felt as if someone had untied its feet. It’s been flying ever since.
Your mileage might vary. All I am saying is – if you are experiencing Mac slow-down problems and you have Google desktop app installed, you might want to take a close look at that sucker.
