I purchased a new mac a few weeks ago, and I'm only getting 30-50fps :-/ I'm running the latest version of Mavericks. I know Java is a mightmare but I was expecting to get a hell of a lot more than 30-50fps. Is there any way to increase the FPS? When playing FTB unleashed I'm getting so many yellow and red warning messages too and I'm playing on Minecraft 1.5.2, here's the logs:

imacs use glorified laptop hardware. you paid out the nose for a small footprint on your desk, not necessarily for raw power :p

based on your hardware 30-50 fps sounds about right, depending on what pack you're running.

But with a computer this powerful and up to date, you'd at least expect it to be able to run FTB easily :-/ I have the 21.5-inch: 2.9GHz version with fusion drive:

The cost seems quite expensive for the specs of that system. Try using the jvm arguments from the thread linked below. The red & yellow warnings are normal and nothing to worry about. Copy and paste them into the java parameters box in advanced options.
