I realized I broke one of my own rules on a couple of recent projects.integerpoet wrote: ↑17 Feb 2021My experience has been somewhat problematic.
Once every couple of hours or so, I get a spin (AKA beach ball AKA SPoD AKA rainbow spinner) that lasts for a minute or so.
Despite some facility with reading spin dumps, I was unable to make sense of the one I grabbed.
Happily, we generally make a full recovery from these spins.
I can't remember experiencing anything like this on Intel Macs.
And, at roughly the same time I started breaking that rule, I switched to an M1 mini. So I changed two things rather than just one.
The rule was: no VSTs. None. Why introduce that stability risk? There simply aren't any which add enough value to my process.
But for some reason I broke my own rule. Maybe it was a good deal on a bundle. Maybe I needed an adventure!
I'm not saying VSTs were the cause of the problem described above. But they could have been.
So for my next project (which will be similar) I will once again observe my own rule.
And if we're lucky I'll remember to report whether I hit this problem.
