32 ways to speed up Aperture

Aperture, Apple's professional photo workflow application, is one of my favourite applications. Period. However, with its RAW processing and non-destructive editing, it's something of a resource-intensive application — even on high powered systems.

Thankfully, Aperture supremo Steve Weller (a.k.a. Bagelturf) has published 32 mighty-handy tips on how you can speed up the application. Some are perhaps more obvious — for example finding a better graphics card for Aperture's GPU-based editing — but there's also a selection of great little tweaks you can make to Aperture to get it running a little snappier. See Steve's site for the full rundown.
