Hello everyone this is my first post
I recently took a job in a media company as a Sys admin and there are macs everywhere. I make my usually PC vs Mac jokes but to be honest I rather like the macs. My problem is that when Mac's get slow, the IT department policy is to format and re-install the OS and all of the software is this standard practice when working with macs?? |

I would rather consider that there is a lot of processes draining CPU resources, this could be identified simply in Monitor |
