It seems to have improved these past years but beach balls used to be comically widespread on OS X. I'm not at all convinced OS X is in any better shape than Windows.

And OS X certainly doesn't have anywhere near all the kick ass monitoring tools that Windows as, such as the ones shown in this article.



You do know that OS X have DTrace?



not just "it has DTrace" it has one of the best implementations/supports of DTrace in any operating system.

It's quite impressive.

It certainly helps that Intel really likes Windows, but I haven't seen Mac users complaining as much as Windows users do, so, it may be for lack of demand (and the bundling of dtrace, for ages).
