Just a word of caution. The 10.9.3 update breaks GPU support for Resolve as well as Adobe PP & ME CC.
Just spent an hour with apple engineers to provide system data. But this could take a while to fix... Don't open the bag of hurt I'm in. Stay away from 10.9.3

New MacPro system. So I haven't settled on my system clone yet...

I was just about to reply asking what the issues are as Resolve appeared to work fine.

That is, until I went to actually render something and it simply hangs halfway through.

Fortunately, I have a backup of 10.9.2 I can restore to.

Us to. I did not wait enough days for the update.... shame on me....

Well, for us it hangs way before rendering. When working with nodes (serial , circle and outside) all of a sudden, it hangs a little, now the monitor stops outputting, when selecting a new clip, the viewer does not update...

Now I just save (and that takes a long time as well), then quit, and I have to reboot, because other programs starts to hang as well.

Managed to make a 10.9 install on a MacBookPro, updates to 10.9.2 and started my MacPro from this systems. All ok.

Shame on you Apple! :(

Just chiming in to add that it's doing this for me too. The past two versions of resolve and the current one are all doing the same thing as described above on a 6 core machine with D700's under 10.9.3.

Incase no one else has seen it, the issue has been confirmed:

Man, I thought I was going crazy...


another symptom to report. the GPU diod goes up to 138^f. (it usually stays around 89^f.)

Downgrading to 10.9.2 to see if that indeed fixes the problem!
