Yes it's another Mavericks slowing down my laptop thread :)
Hi there
I recently installed Mavericks, just before Xmas in fact, and noticed how slow it was from the start. Now I'm back at work, it's killing me!
First off, I had lots of problems with Mail, and something to do with Keychain (forgive me, laptop is a tool, I don't really understand how it works). I managed to get that working, although, I must say it still is slow at collecting mail from my various accounts.
Word, well that's just hysterical. I can sit and type a few lines, sit back and watch Word catch up with me over a minute or so, then have to go back and correct my terrible typing, it's painful and un-usable. I have noted on here to rebuild my Office Database, which I've done, and it appeared to have no problems.
So what to do? I heard about EtreCheck so have run that and will paste results below, I'm hoping that someone will spot something there that is really obvious and return me to fact Mac nirvana.
I'm on a 2011 MacBook Pro, 2.8ghz Intel Core i7, 4GB RAM. i don't have lots of 3rd party stuff installed, but do run Photoshop, Quark, Office and a few other apps.
Here's hoping for help, and thanks in advance!
Jonny

Your memory usage is fine. Its green. Read this:
About memory management in OSX 10.9 Mavericks
Memory is managed differently, and more efficiently in 10.9. It is (mostly) unique in the industry, but may become trend.
Let’s start with the basics. Mechanical disk drives are very slow, with access speeds in the 10s of milliseconds and transfer rates in the 200-400 Mbps range real world. SSDs are much faster, on the order of a couple of ms access and typically 1200-3000 mbps transfer rates. RAM is much faster than either, in the nanosecond access and transfer speeds of ~8 Gbps effective (1 GHz x 8 bits/byte).
These are rough numbers for comparison purposes only.
So the goal is to keep as much in RAM as possible. But if you run out of RAM what do you do?
Traditionally you take the least used RAM and write it to a special part of the disk, in a way that you can access it most efficiently - minimizing the disk delays. This is called a swap file because you swap RAM in and out of it.
10.9 has a new trick: it compresses RAM using the main processors. Rather than swapping stuff to disk (disks are slow), it actually uses the processor to compress memory and make, for example, 1 GB of physical RAM hold as much as 1.5GB. Similar approaches are used to make MP3 files 10x smaller than the real thing - there is redundancy in data and you can take advantage of that. Apple is making the following calculation: the processors can compress way faster than the disk can swap. And its also predicting that the processors are often partly idle - waiting for swap files or disk access. So rather than swap files around, its compresses the files ***in RAM***.
Compression works,. Tests show that on average it is faster, and that 4GB (i have 4 GB RAM) acts like 5 1/2 - 6GB. Wow.
So, 10.9 will load up most of your RAM, knowing that it can compress some when it needs to. So don’t worry too much that it may look like all your RAM is taken - yea, it is, but its OK.
The measures to look at are:
1. amount compressed. Compression means it has run out of RAM and needs more. As long as compression is low this is fine. In fact this is how 10.9 uses RAM more efficiently than 10.6,7 or 8. Contrary to common wisdom, it requires LESS RAM than 10.8. The colored indicator tells you who this is going - green (good), yellow( iffy) and red (bad).
2. amount swapped. Once it cannot compress any further, or can’t do so efficiently, jot begins old-fashioned swapping. This is a major slow-down and means you would benefit from more RAM. Tiny amounts are OK.
here's an article by Apple - but on th pre-10.9 memory management techniques....mostly still true, but read on.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1342?viewlocale=en_US
Bottom line - compression makes 10.9 use RAM more efficiently than previous OSX versions. It also makes the “ram used” indicator less meaningful, and mans you should monitor “compression” .
That said, RAM has always been one of the most cost effective upgrades possible. People spend too much on new machines and too little on more RAM.
Hope this helps,
Grant

Many other users are having sucess by using EtreCheck to show what is installed so they can remove or update the 3rd party software, it can be a long process.

The choice is yours, if you have a backup just revert to that. -

where to find the best application for cleaning out my MacBook Air with OS X 10.7.5? I've been using MacKeeper but believe it's slowing down my laptop considerable. Thank you.
How to maintain a Mac
1. Make redundant backups, keeping at least one off site at all times. One backup is not enough. Don’t back up your backups; make them independent of each other. Don’t rely completely on any single backup method, such as Time Machine. If you get an indication that a backup has failed, don't ignore it.
2. Keep your software up to date. In the Software Update preference pane, you can configure automatic notifications of updates to OS X and other Mac App Store products. Some third-party applications from other sources have a similar feature, if you don’t mind letting them phone home. Otherwise you have to check yourself on a regular basis. This is especially important for complex software that modifies the operating system, such as device drivers. Before installing any Apple update, you must check that all such modifications that you use are compatible.
3. Don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” "boosters," “extenders,” “cleaners,” "doctors," "tune-ups," “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this stuff is useless, or worse than useless. Above all, avoid any software that purports to change the look and feel of the user interface.
The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
As a rule, the only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Use your computer; don't fuss with it.
Safari extensions, and perhaps the equivalent for other web browsers, are a partial exception to the above rule. Most are safe, and they're easy to get rid of if they don't work. Some may cause the browser to crash or otherwise malfunction. Some are malicious. Use with caution, and install only well-known extensions from relatively trustworthy sources, such as the Safari Extensions Gallery.
Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it. Otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
4. Beware of trojans. A trojan is malicious software (“malware”) that the user is duped into installing voluntarily. Such attacks were rare on the Mac platform until sometime in 2011, but are now increasingly common, and increasingly dangerous.
There is some built-in protection against downloading malware, but you can’t rely on it — the attackers are always at least one day ahead of the defense. You can’t rely on third-party protection either. What you can rely on is common-sense awareness — not paranoia, which only makes you more vulnerable.
Never install software from an untrustworthy or unknown source. If in doubt, do some research. Any website that prompts you to install a “codec” or “plugin” that comes from the same site, or an unknown site, is untrustworthy. Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be acquired directly from the developer. No intermediary is acceptable, and don’t trust links unless you know how to parse them. Any file that is automatically downloaded from a web page without your having requested it should go straight into the Trash. A website that claims you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, is rogue.
In OS X 10.7.5 or later, downloaded applications and Installer packages that have not been digitally signed by a developer registered with Apple are blocked from loading by default. The block can be overridden, but think carefully before you do so.
Because of recurring security issues in Java, it’s best to disable it in your web browsers, if it’s installed. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This action is mandatory if you’re running any version of OS X older than 10.6.8 with the latest Java update. Note: Java has nothing to do with JavaScript, despite the similar names. Don't install Java unless you're sure you need it. Most people don't.
5. Don't fill up your boot volume. A common mistake is adding more and more large files to your home folder until you start to get warnings that you're out of space, which may be followed in short order by a boot failure. This is more prone to happen on the newer Macs that come with an internal SSD instead of the traditional hard drive. The drive can be very nearly full before you become aware of the problem. While it's not true that you should or must keep any particular percentage of space free, you should monitor your storage consumption and make sure you're not in immediate danger of using it up. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the startup volume for normal operation.
If storage space is running low, use a tool such as the free application OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the most space. Move rarely-used large files to secondary storage.
6. Relax, don’t do it. Besides the above, no routine maintenance is necessary or beneficial for the vast majority of users; specifically not “cleaning caches,” “zapping the PRAM,” "resetting the SMC," “rebuilding the directory,” "defragmenting the drive," “running periodic scripts,” “dumping logs,” "deleting temp files," “scanning for viruses,” "purging memory," "checking for bad blocks," "testing the hardware," or “repairing permissions.” Such measures are either completely pointless or are useful only for solving problems, not for prevention.
The very height of futility is running an expensive third-party application called “Disk Warrior” when nothing is wrong, or even when something is wrong and you have backups, which you must have. Disk Warrior is a data-salvage tool, not a maintenance tool, and you will never need it if your backups are adequate. Don’t waste money on it or anything like it. -
Why did Mavericks slow down my MBP?
Did some digging in Discussions and found that a slow-down problem is common after installing Mavericks.
EtreCheck was recommended as a diagnostic first step. I have a report but I am not confident to act on any items without advice. Here it is - help appreciated.

Anything in Startup Items could be a problem. Apple declared Startup Items to be obsolete in 2006 so this is software that hasn't been updated since before then or they are following the doing the don't-update-until-it-breaks plan.
I suggest uninstalling these problems to see if that fixes things. Always use the vendor-provided uninstaller or uninstallation instructions. Never try to do it manually. That could only make things worse. You may need to download a new installer that may come with an uninstaller. Unfortunately, installers, and especially uninstallers, are a weak point of OS X compared to Windows.

Remove these too. iStat seems to have an invalid plist file. KeyAccess has a support link that may eventually lead you to an uninstaller.

Notice a trend? This is why I say to use vendor-provided uninstallers.

Does Maverick slow down processor speed on iMac 2007?
Ever since the update on Maverick 9.1 I been experiencing very slow reponse in all of my applications, especially Safari. I tried memory clean, disk doctor, and hard drive test which show nothing really. Activity monitor shows I got about 1 GB of ram that is available when running Safari. I tried other browers with the same rainbow circle that safari has. Is it a virus? Or is my computer so old that apple is trying to force me to upgrade? (BTW, I've got 3 GB of ram and 54 GB of hard drive space avalible- and I ordered more ram to make a total of 4 GB of ram).
RAM could be one of the issues with your slower Mac performance.
You are starting to get a little low on hard drive space. 54 GBs is still alright, just need to keep an eye on this when your drives gets to 20 GBs or lower.
Do you run any antivirus software on your Mac? Antivirus software can slow down the normal operation of OS X.
If you have any commercially advertised antivirus software installed, completely uninstall this per the instructions on the developer's website.
Do you run any "crapware" like Mackeeper or any other type of so called hard drive "cleaning" or " tune up" style apps? These are a form of malware/"crapware".
Delete anything like this per the instructions on the developer's website. -

I've had Mavericks installed since the day it was released and I'm still having slowdown problems. I've run Disk Repair and even upgraded to 8GB RAM. I'm running a late 2011 Macbook Pro and I'm losing my mind. Below are my EtreCheck results, a process recommended in another thread. Can anyone help me?

Mavericks slowing down system; Etrecheck results?
Since I installed Mavericks it's really slwoing down my operating system.
I have repaired disk permissions in safe mode, which hasn't improved things.
So after reading on here I tried Etrecheck. But I'm not sure how to interpret the results.
Could someone please tell me if there is some obvious things I should change, uninstall etc?
Thanks in advance.

System still v slow, spinning raimbow ball etc.
Might it be helpful to re-install Mavericks?
I can't do a clean install as I don't have the install disks of most of my other software with me.

Mavericks slowed down my MacBook Pro 13 inch (Mid 2010)
I did a clean install of 10.6.3 (which came with my MacBook Pro). Then upgraded to 10.6.8 to be able to download Mavericks from the App store. Installed Mavericks and everything (boot-up, application lauch, opening folders, etc.) has been dragging since then. Can someone explain a better way to do the installation or changes to make to improve the speed?
Thank you,
MacBook Pro 13 inch (Mid 2010)I have the same problem. I have 4gb of RAM; I was going to upgarde to 8, but seeing that you have 8, this probably won't help.
I feel like it's progressivly getting slower as well.
I was going to get a solid state drive and more RAM to fix the issue.
Looking at my activity monitor I show this:
As it sits right now, I have just Chrome open, facebook tab, email tab and this thread tab open and it's using 3.99 of my memory. Kernal_task is using the most memory.
I dont want to buy a new computer but maybe it's just too old?
Any info would be great. I'm not terribly technical and I love my mac, makes me sad to think of getting rid of it! Altho excited for a new one -

I am a novice!! ThanksHello,
FIrst,
You have some very undesirable " garbageware" on your system.
Zeobit MacKeeper and TuneUpMyMac. Get rid of them per these links!!!

Second,
Remove/delete all WD drive software. It is not needed on OS X and can actually harm your hard drives if used with OS X's own drive utilities.
Remove the WD drive app fron your login/startup items.
Add or remove automatic items
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Users & Groups.
Select your user account, then click Login Items.
Do one of the following:
Click Add below the list on the right, select an app, document, folder, or disk, then click Add.If you don’t want an item’s windows to be visible after login, select Hide. (Hide does not apply to servers, which always appear in the Finder after login.)
Select the name of the item you want to prevent from opening automatically, then click Delete below the list on the right.
Third,
Your Mac is starved for RAM. 2 GBs of RAM is too smal amount of RAM to run OS X Mavericks.
Your year and model Mac can take a total of 6 GBs of RAM.
I seriously and STRONGLY advise you purchase and install the full 6 GBs of RAM.
RAM is user installable and relatively easy for a newbie or novice Mac user to install.
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nARtKNIznsU
Correct and reliable Mac RAM can be purchased from online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com).
OWC (macsales.com) is the only online Mac RAM seller with the 6 GB RAM kit.

PSE slows down my laptop terribly!! Spinning beach ball all the time
I tried asking on Adobe, but no mac users, apparently. I've installed PSE twice (once was 4 yrs ago). Both times, it has slowed my macbook down so much that it's basically unusable.
I have the Intel core duo processor and plenty of RAM, etc. I checked Adobe's requirements for PSE.
Anyone have or heard of this problem or have any suggestions?
TIAHi
PSE ? ?
Slow Mac - very often due to lack of space on internal boot hard disk.
less then 5Gb and it's not working safe at all
I set for a minimum of 25Gb free space all the time - to get it running OK

I have a macbook 2009 2gb model. If i upgrade to mountain lion will it slow down the laptop?
I have a mac book, 2gb 2009 model. I am thinking of upgrading the system to mountain lion but recently did the ame thing on my work's desktop mac and I find the system is slightly slower. Will it make my macbook slower doing this. Currently I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.8. Thanks
i've been running mountain lion on my white unibody 2gb ram macbook since launch. it is possible and it works, but i just upgraded to 4gb's yesterday and i can tell a difference in the os. its not dramitically faster like an ssd would be, but its definitely snappier and smoother.
i got my 4gb ram at owc for 32 dollars shipped and it was very easy to install.
