Early 2013 13" MacBook Pro runs slow and uses a lot of RAM, why and what can be done?

Problem description:
My computer is using a lot of RAM. Wondering if there’s a hardware issue, or a software issue, or something else. I currently have no programs open in the Doc, besides EntreCheck. and the RAM is showing about 75% used. I’m looking for suggestions on what I can do to speed it up and make it more functional, and efficient for doing design work. I recently upgraded from the original 4GB RAM (2x2GB), and from the original HD to a 512 GB SSD drive, and upgraded to Yosemite. Perhaps that was too much for this machine? Please help with anything that I can do to make it better! Thanks in advance!
I have a recent back-up, I'm open to saving user files and starting from scratch with the current hardware, etc... but would need some direction on how to do this. I did upgrade myself using Apple provided instructions.
Here are the EntreCheck results:

Here's the new EtreCheck that I just ran. At a glance, it seems I may have missed deleting some things or they are stored in an additional location? I haven't jumped into anything yet to really test if there's a difference in performance for me. Once I do I will post that information.

Hi, I have a iMac Tiger running slowly, how can I make it run faster?

Hi, I have a iMac Tiger 10.4.11 running slowly, how can I make it run faster?

Look at what is happenning with your Mac when you run Activity Monitor.
Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Activity Monitor
Click on the CPU tab on the lower half of the window to see how much time you are using.
Click on System Memory to get statistics on memory usage. You should have some free memory.
When you have lots of page outs more memory will be helpful. My entry for entry for Page ins/outs is:
Page ins/outs: 29163/0
Notice I have 0 pageouts which says that I am not using my harddrive for extra memory space. Thus, I have enough memory.
Activity Monitor has a neat feature where it can display a dynamic dock icon. In Activity Monitor View > Dock icon > Show cpu history.

How can I make Privoxy load faster?

I'm using vimb and it works well except the only way to block ads is to use privoxy. Privoxy takes about 5-10 minutes to start after my computer boots. This means I can't access the internet when I first start my computer. How can I make it load faster?

After updating to mavericks on my MacBook, the screen keeps saying "setting up your mac." It has been like this for hours! How can I make it go faster?

After updating to mavericks on my MacBook, the screen keeps saying "setting up your mac." It has been like this for hours! How can I make it go faster? It's has been like this for 4 hrs.

I don't think your mac is setting up. It's stuck.
I would:
hold the power button until it shuts down
unplug all peripherals
do a safe boot (restart and hold down the shift key until you see the apple logo).
If it starts up in a safe boot, then you can try restarting with a normal boot.
If it does not start with a normal boot, then you probably have some incompatible third party software. Likely culprits are:
MacKeeper
CleanMyMac
third-party antivirus software
any other "cleaning" or "optimizing" or similar third party "utilities".
A good place to start would be to uninstall any of those (while in safe mode) and then restart.

Can i make Aperture run faster ?

To help those struggling to understand why their computer is running Aperture slowly, let me add a few thoughts to help out. I've been using the application since 1.0, bought a G5 quad to run it (launched on same day) with the stock video card. My Photographic interest was Landscape and macro work in film (hobby) and been using digital since 94 and now turned Pro adding Portrats and Weddings to my interest.
How do i run Aperture at a decent speed ?
1. Invest in good hardware. In any of Apple's product line max-out the graphics card option (except perhaps expensive Quadro fx4500), max out CPU option then the RAM. Invest as much as possible in the non-upgradeable components. Over time you can add more ram, but don't underestimate the importance of RAM in OSX. Keep your boot/application and data drives below 70% capacity as above this they start to slow down.
2. Use the vaults and backup the library (don't forget any referenced images).
3. When editing images, don't whang the sliders freely left to right. Be a crafstman, use the number adjustment arrows, with the modifier keys for fine tunng SHIFT and ALT. This is faster.
4. If an image has a lot of spot'n'patches, do this first before any other adjustments (or untick their box in the HUD). Similarly for strighten, do this before H&S or exposure mods.
5. Switch off previews, for marginal improvements.
6. Don't use full-screen mode, its lovely, but with my awful graphic card it kills it when adjusting. Remove the projects window W and control bar D. Toggle the adjustments with I. Real estate is arranged better with the browser on LHS.
7. Try culling the rejects with the viewer off V and maximise the thumbnail size. Suprisingly fast and effective when only going for rejects.
8. After culling use the auto stack feature to reduce the number of images your viewing into 'like' shots. Helps when choosing your story for output.
9. Setup some presets for varying degrees of edge sharpen and White balance as this helps get you get in the vacinity of where you want the adjustment. eg. I have five increasing degrees of edge sharpening intensity and six white balance settings (daylight, cloudy, shade, flash, tungsten, flourescent) which gets me closer to a good WB faster than playing with multiple sliders.
10. Learn the keyboard shortcut.
11. Use Aperture feedback. If your unsatisfied with anything then tell apple as well as the forums. So far we have seen big improvements in Aperture, some were really alpha/beta issues but it is clear Apple is serious about investing in this young Application. I hope they invest in the pixel-pushing, local editing, masks and layers abilities, but do it true to an intuitave workflow platform that Aperture has become.
12. RTFM as well as buy a book - invest in your skills, become better, faster and ultimately more productive.
13. Don't believe in bad luck !
The reason for Aperture running sluggish when using specific adjustments is because i need to upgrade my video card. Fortunately, i can, but might invest in a MP for more storage.

If You go to the Aperture site page for basic requirements needed to run it, It will state a Powerbook in fairly basic design will run the Application.
And before I purchased Aperture, and as you can see I updated my RAM to 2 GB.
I ordered this laptop with the top line of all hardware possible.
So I could run also run a 20" screen.
And no, I didn't pack the 20" in my suitcase.
It's amazing how far you have to make sure people don't take one word and run with it.
Not ONLY Aperture, but DDP (Digital Photo Professional), as I hate when people only use abbreviations for everything, and the person trying to learn something is slammed out the door for even looking.
But both applications run pig azz slow. So much so, and I also use the Activity Monitor to keep watch over things in realtime.
When things run this slow to the point you can't see a live change in the view,
You don't learn much, and you can't complete a simple project.
Like one person suggested earlier, just tweak the image one mark at a time.
Well hey, we don't have 6 hours to make one adjustment.
The processor is running at 100% and never backs off till you kill the application.
Making the move from Canon G5, to a Canon 30D and a few thou in lenses, is about the biggest joke while in Europe. Yea, drag all this stuff you don't see to Europe, with 2 portable hard drives to keep the Mac hard drive happy.
It all adds up to roughly a $7000 dollar mistake.
The ads are a total farce. Get this, and do stuff beyond the norm.
Yea Right, like your going to bring a G5 tower in a suitcase.
Oh sure, I'll struggle with the software till get through with 20 images, and
what if you have 300?
Now, one question... Who's next , as far as an application that runs RAW images with no lag. With out all the BS.
Power Book G4-1.67-2GB, Bluetooth Mouse & Keys Mac OS X (10.4.8) 20" screen for dual view.

FAQ: How do I make Photoshop run faster, or How do I increase performance?

Why doesn't Photoshop run faster?
There are many factors that contribute to the responsiveness of Photoshop. From hardware to software, there a nearly an infinite number of combinations that can boost or hinder Photoshop as it tries to work. Considering factors like how much RAM you have only begins to scratch the surface. Then you have to look at how fast the RAM is and how fast the motherboard will be in supporting it. A computer can only run as fast as its slowest components. Additionally, the hardware resources must be split between all of the running applications. And while you may only be running a web browser at the same time as Photoshop, what about all of the applications running in the background? Security software such as antivirus remains hidden, operating behind the scenes, but it still takes up CPU cycles and RAM. And what about the files you are working with? What are their pixel dimensions? File size on disk? Number of layers, smart objects, styles, and adjustments?
To start, though, you must make sure you meet or exceed the minimum system requirements:

What can I do to make Photoshop run more efficiently?
There are many factors to take into consideration and may steps that can be taken. Here are a list of resources that go into great detail.

What about Photoshop taking advantage of the power of my video card?
With each new release of Photoshop, it will take more advantage of you GPU (Graphic Processing Unit), which can process display information much faster than your CPU. You video card also has its own separate RAM (known as VRAM) for storing this information. However, not all video cards are equal, even if they have the same amount of VRAM. There are different display processing technologies that all video cards do not have access to. These include technologies like OpenGL, OpenCL, and Shader Model. And these technologies have different versions that your video card may or may not have.
For more information on Photoshop's use of GPU, please review:

FAQ: What features use the GPU and how do I troubleshoot GPU issues?
What other performance boosts has Photoshop gained recently?
While Photoshop tends to gain overall performance upgrades by cleaning up the code to make things run more smoothly with each release, there are a couple new technologies that Photoshop has taken advantage of:

Recent version of Mark Ostroff's "But How Do I Make It Go Faster?" ?

I like to know if anyone (Mark Ostroff himself perhaps?) knows if there is a more recent version avilable of the document which can be found on:
http://www.advancedatatools.com/HyperionUserGroup/presentations/How_do_I_make_it_go_Faster.pdf
The document really is a very good start for our developers but it seems to date back from 2006.
