yesterday, my machine starting dragging along. granted, i had a load of programs open, but that's macOS, innit?

then i looked in the activity monitor and something stood out. cpu and memory levels were reasonable, but there was a strange program taking up 1.3gb virtual memory. "TrueBlue Environment" it was called, and i killed it immediately. the dock restarted and then it was fine. none of my apps quit. what was this?

should it be doing this, though?
 
That is easy. This was problem happened to me too. The easy answer was an older Quicktime codec from the DIVX codecs.
 
It might very well. What classic apps are you running at the time? They will not show up in the process list. That is really the most likely culprit.
 
i have been running classic recently, to play monkey island. is that what it is? why does it take up 100% cpu then? classic does NOT need 1.8ghz to run.
 
I am experiencing freezing in the Classic Mac game "Journeyman Project 3 - Legacy of Time." Like the original poster, I find using Activity Monitor that the "True Blue Environment" is using 100% of my CPU time when this freeze happens. I am running Classic under Mac OS X 10.4.11 on a PowerMac 2.7 GHz dual-CPU G5. (May 2005 build)

Is there any solution to this problem? Thanks for any advice!
 
Is there a non-classic and Mac OS X version of that application? Or a similar application...
 
Presto Studios, which created the Legacy of Time video game, went out of business before Mac OS X was introduced. I am having other types of problems under Classic with other games such as "Starship Titanic," whose Installer program will not copy any necessary files from its original disc to my hard disk ("I/O" Error), and "Traitors Gate," which installs OK, but has a similar problem as LOT, freezing repeatedly during play. Also I have found that a new music CD will not be accepted by my Superdrive (under Mac OS X); the drive simply buzzes a couple of times and then rejects the disc.
