I've read some of this forum thread about 10.3.6 problems. I've noticed the same thiing with my 20" iMac G5!?

Whenever I use Safari, the only application running, it loads slowly! It's not like before?! Is it because of 10.3.6 problems? Or is it because i have 256 MB ram? Or what's the other possiblity??

Is there any way that I could fix this out? Please help me get out of this! I dont like this at ALL!

The fact that it loads slower has nothing to do with the fact that you only have 256MB of RAM since you had the same amount before the update. Now do yourself a favor and upgrade it. I can barely live with 1GB (my PowerBook's max.)

But it wasn't the same when I first got it 2 months ago.. It was FAST and it started to slow down after I upgraded to 10.3.6

I can't afford to buy 1 GB ram now anyway.

Unrelated but always a good idea ..

Before & After any software update .. Repair permissions: Close all open files and applications. Go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility and double click it. Then select "Macintosh HD" in the left panel and First Aid at the top. Then click on "Repair Permissions."

Did you reset and empty caches for Safari?

Here's a helpful link otherwise ...
