Hi,
I've got Yosemite installed and it works, but every time I switch to Windows (I have 2 OSs installed) I see how slow my OS X setup is. From laggy windows resizing to long opening of the apps - it's just slower than Windows. Another thing is laggy animations when an external monitor is connected - even thought its resolution is similiar to my laptops internal monitor (1440x900 vs 1366x768) the whole OS gets laggy (laptop is closed, so only external monitor is working). It's connected via VGA. Additionally sometimes I can see that it works pretty well with that monitor (no lag), but mostly it does not (very laggy animations).
I read that some people experience increased performance after changing system definition to something different. In my case I could change it from Macbook Pro 8,1 to Air or Mac Mini, maybe? I don't really know if it would help and if it's any good. How do you think? Is there any way to check if my setup should be faster than it is?
