  • "I recently had a strange networking problem -- perhaps this may help others. Several months ago I noticed periodic episodes where Safari and Firefox couldn't load web pages. At first I thought it was an intermittent problem with the ISP. But eventually I realized the problem had a particular characteristic: for the duration of the problem, no application could open a new network connection, but existing connections still transferred data. The problem was pervasive: not even DNS lookups would work. Safari didn't think it was connected to the network at all. But sometimes, for a brief moment, Safari could load a page, and then it was back to no connection. This would go on for 15 minutes or so and then everything was back to normal. ... So the moral is: if your machine can't make any new network connections, check if you have an upload that is using up your bandwidth." MacInTouch 10:40 AM

I think 1920x1200 (HiDPI) means it's rendered at 3840x2400, and then down-sampled to draw on the native 2880x1800 display. That would certainly cause a lot of memory and GPU use, hence the fan activity, especially depending on what filtering algorithm was used. 1920x1200 would be up-sampled to 2880x1800, so less memory, but may look a bit more fuzzy, as not a clean 4:1 or 2:1 sampling. Either that - or a lot more filtering. 2880x1800 (not HiDPI) would look clean, with small text!" MacInTouch 10:40 AM
