To be fair, Apple seems to be addressing this with the last release. El Capitan had fewer new features and concentrated mainly on performance issues. I hope they do the same in the next release. I don't care for more features at this point.

weird, it felt faster than Mavericks to me. I'm pretty sure that Mavericks eats up more RAM than El Capitan but then again I could be wrong.

Still, having Apple acknowledging the problem is a win. I've tried migrating to Ubuntu and Windows 10. Didn't work. If I could justify a new Mac Pro, it would probably mitigate the problem. I just wish they had a Mac Pro lite. I don't want yet another converted laptop e.g. mini & imac
