Photoshop CS6 extended sniffer_gpu crash on mac ML

I have the latest update installed for Photoshop CS6 for Mac, I also hosts the latest OS (MountainLion 10.8.4). I have a MacBookPro end of 2012. Everytime I open Photoshop, it shows an error log saying "sniffer_gpu quit unexpectedly. I had this happened before and got fixed, but don't remember how and does it just one more time. I have searched all over the web to find an answer, but I'm not and I'm lost. Everything is up-to-date, why do I get this crash and how to fix it?

Photoshop works very well, but it's an annoying error and something seems to be wrong. But what? If anyone can help, I would be grateful. I don't want to have to reinstall Photoshop every few months because of this error, because I feel that I shouldn't.

Account required to workaround is to disable the sniffer of gpu until the fix is issued.

1. in the folder Photoshop CC, Ctrl-click on Adobe Photoshop CC.app

2. choose "Show Package Contents" from the context menu.

3. open the contents > MacOS folder, search for "sniffer".

4. keep that file, but to rename it by placing a tilde from sniffer: ~ sniff

5. close the finder and PS CC should start normally.
