A few nights ago I experienced the lagging mouse for the first time. 09/30/2018 was my successful install of 10.11.6 with all working fine. I had read about the USB issues but all was working well, so I did not edit anything.
When the issues occurred, I read many threads on the issues users were having with the mouse lag. I am having no other issues with USB devices. So as an experiment, I cleaned the kextcache and rebooted to see what would happen:
This fixed the problem. But will it reoccur? I feel that it probably will. So my question to the group, what issue does this solution indicate? Does the fact that clearing the kextcache give you an idea of what the issue is and to which steps should I follow to permeantly fix the lagging mouse? Or should I do nothing? What can I learn from this experience.
Thanks ahead of time.
