Choppy Scrolling in Lion

I'm experiencing choppy scrolling in Lion on my early 2008 iMac. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any remedies?


I also own an 11-inch Macbook Air and the scrolling seems better on that machine.

I was experiencing delays of around 200ms when scrolling in any application in OSX Mavericks 10.9.2 and the tip from @_bast_ worked great for me:


try deleting these files:


User/[yourName]/]Library/Preferences/

com.apple.driver.AppleBluetoothMultitouch.mouse.plist

com.apple.driver.AppleBluetoothMultitouch.mouse.plist.lockfile

com.apple.driver.AppleHIDMouse.plist


then restart
