Mountain Lion UI Lag on rMBP !!! (Let's Make this thread serious and hope for a fix)

I personally think the UI lagging bug is a serious issue on rMBP because this machine cost $2000 and up and it lags on UI features such as Mission Control and Space Switching while classic Macbook pros don't. I do understand that the retina display models carries a high resolution display, but I think the quad core CPU should have the ability to handle it (please correct me if I am wrong)



I am hoping and asking anyone experiencing the issue to follow up with this thread and post your concerns. Let's hope for a fix soon and we can really enjoy the beauty a Retina Macbook Pro brings to us.

Well They called me and told me they were doing analysis on the problem we retina owners faces, and that they need me to send them a system diognosis files (via email) using the ctrl alt option shift +. method (while in higher def mode)+ another tool (Capture_Data_9-1.1.1.dmg) which capture the system's data which I needed to run.


both (2 files total) were emailed to him and was told he'll pass it on to the rMBP Engineers.


Seems fishy (?? I never heard of Apple calling individual owners), but the email addresses and headers were legit (online tools to verify), and the phone number +1 (916) 399-7992 seems from apple (at least what google returns: 1 search result to this apple forums about the same number)

This is good news I guess...

It means they're actually doing something.


I still have the same issues with this retina screen : pictures on an auto ad for example; they blink..., overall dispaly is rarely fluid, when I switch from Mail (white background) to iPhoto (Grey background) then I can still see my Mail program for seconds...


Let's hope they'll fix this for good but it might also be hardware... which is also fixable but cost more.
