ArekS Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Hi, I'm using Alfred since one year. After releasing v.2 I switched to it. On version 2 I can see big lag (or delay about 15-20 seconds) when trying access System Preferences. For example I write in Alfred "Disp", choosing "Displays" and need wait about 15-20 seconds to show preference dialog. Same story with "Network" or all other dialogs in system preference. If I use Spotlight instead Alfred or click System Preferences->Displays dialogs displays almost immediately. It is almost identical on my both mac's. When using Alfred v.1 there was no any delay like in Spotlight. Can anybody help me solve this problem? My hardware: 15" Retina MBP ML 10.8.3 - about 10-12 seconds delay 11" MB Air ML (last model) 10.8.3 - about 15-20 seconds delay Best wishes ArekS Link to comment

By chance is there some network location or external device that may have spun down that you are also indexing? Wondering if Alfred is hanging while attempting to search a drive that has spun down.

dfay Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Same issue here. On iMac 29" and MB Air 13" both running 10.8.3 . But - it's inconsistent - the first time I do it (after a while...) it lags. On subsequent calls, it pops up quickly. Link to comment
RodgerWW Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 It's slower for me too. Only at about 3 secs to load initially. But subsequent calls are definitely faster, just as fast as through Apple Menu. Link to comment

Hi, I'm sorry for delay in answer. No, I have not any connected drives or network drives. I will not call it as Alfred hanging. In my opinion Alfred is working and is responsible when trying to display System preferences but it taking so long. I need agree it is inconsistent. It always take long at first attempt but second and all other are typically much faster but not always, mostly third one is as fast as form Apple menu. Can I make other test for help? In midtime I created new account, disable all started at login software (Dropbox, Cafeine, TextExpander and other) and nothing changed, problem still occur. It is definitely something wrong with Alfred 2. Link to comment
