Dear Lorenzo,
Thank you for providing GRASS binaries for Mac OS X. I'm trying to
use the last cvs 6.1 version downloaded from http://
wwwamb.bologna.enea.it/forgrass/downloadcvs.htm on an Imac with an
Intel processor and it seems to be very slow, displaying a simple
vector map takes about 20 seconds, which is far more slowly than on
the Debian system of my colleague. Do you have any explanation for
that ? Is this due to the Rosetta emulation ?
Best wishes.

Yes, the Rosetta translation is probably slowing it down some. Not a big issue when coming from a PPC Mac, since those processors generally top out at slower speeds than the Intel Macs, but coming from another Intel-native OS you might notice the Rosetta slowdown.
Not really trying to squeeze in on Lorenzo's work (well, maybe a tiny bit ^_^), but how about trying my Universal OSX GRASS package? It's pretty solid now, and it would be nice to get more feedback on it. I just uploaded an update this morning to take care of a couple startup issues.

Didier,
Which model iMac are you using; which CPU (Power PC G3, G4, G5, Intel??) and what speed is the CPU?

Moritz,
Running GRASS 6.1 CVS on a Dual 1.8 GHz G4 PowerPC (2.1 GB RAM) at home I have no problems such as those described. The redraw speeds are a little slower than on the Dual 2.4 GHz Intel/Linux machines at work. I have not quantified the speeds, however.
I have noticed, however, that with the writing of the history information, redraw is noticeably slower with 6.1 than with 6.0.x with the new GIS manager (gis.m)
Hope this helps!
Cheers!
