Slow iMac 8.1 with Lion
I'd also like to state that my iMac 8.1 Gb RAM 2.4 GHz is very sluggish after Lion update. Codncuted all the usual cleanup but apart from faster startup after trashing the caches the rest of the performance is terrible.
On some occassions I empty the trash but don't get the audio for 5-10 seconds afterwards.
I use Aperture 3 and it has done to the dogs in performance.
Sometimes the cursor vanishes for a few seconds.
I'm not going to revert to Snow Leopard for a month or so to give Apple a chance to make improvements - but I really do hate being used to benchtest software for huge crprorations - do I look like a guinea pig!!
