Camino Slowdown and Solution - volcs0 - 04-03-2007
My Camino had been grinding to a halt lately - whenever I downloaded a file. The beachball would spin as the file downloaded and as it decompressed or mounted.
I finally figured out the problem. I had never emptied out my download history - there were over a 1000 entries (the downloads.plist was 700KB).
I backed up the download.plist file (~/Library/Application Support/Camino/downloads.plist), removed it and now everything is back to normal.

Nice.
I recently converted to Camino and this will surely help solve a future problem. Preemptive strike!
