in Working with GS (Mac)

Anyone else on a Mac have the issue where after a random amount of time GS will start to run slower and slower (pinwheel of death) to the point that it is unusable? I read a few posts about a memory leak issue, but can't find anything recent or w/fixes.

MacBook Pro Retina w/8 GB of RAM running OS X 10.10.2

    This is almost normal for GS. Save often. I just close GS and open again every now and then.

    Version 12.20 was fine for me but with 13.7 this is constantly the case. It takes 30 seconds sometimes to select an attribute from a menu, for example. And it crashes frequently.

    Eagerly awaiting 13.8/14.0...

    I guess it's good to hear it's not just me. Also looking forward to an update.

    @pauljaappdev I am having the same problem using a newer Mac Book Pro. GS is working on a fix now. Apple changed the way in which they dump memory with the new operating system.

    Same here, after 2-3 minute it is unusable, save close open save close open, exhausting process.

    I am experiencing extreme slow down using Mac Creator 13.7. It is pretty much unusable. I hope they can get it back to running normally.
