Safari 5.0.2 hangs up, spinning wheel and stalls
I tried several of the tips on line related to cache, resetting Safari, forms, etc. None of the tips seemed to result in any noticeable performance increases.
I've taken my iMac into my local Genius bar to resolve) and they seemingly did by restoring Safari. [We thought I may have imported a conflicting Safari setting/version when I used the Migrate feature from my old G4 to the iMac.] Worked great in the store but still doesn't work well at home. Which led the Genius Bar folks and I suspected my internet connectivity.
I've trouble shot and reset my Netgear router, cable modem and checked the cabling. It is the same on both the Wi-Fi connection and Ethernet connection. I've checked for packet loss with the Network utility and have 100% packet transmission (the ping times are ~55ms).
I also have an AirPort Express hooked up (to stream iTunes to the stereo) and wonder if that is interfering with the signal (or using my bandwidth); however, the stereo is rarely on.
I did not notice this poor Safari performance before when I was still on my G4 last spring. I didn't notice it on the MacBook either.
I'm looking for other trouble shooting tips or advice.
