Retina MacBook Pro hang time on wake.

I'm having the same issue. I have noticed that it only lags or hangs like that after it's been asleep for a couple hours or more. If I just wake it after sleeping for a few minutes, it doesn't do it.

I had no problems with waking before the update either. Now I do. I have the same problem/scenario as the OP. I have not noticed any pixelation of the status bar icons though.

SAME ISSUE. I noticed this with my new rMBP. I had a 08 MBP and this issue wasn't present. My computer seems to be frosen when I open the screen for the about 5-8 seconds. Anyone know of a fix?

Just adding a "me too" to this.

I think I'm having the same problem here. In my case, I can sometimes even enter my password, and it would attempt to log in and then freeze. I waited a few minutes but it never "unfreezes" and I have to resort to force shut down by holding down the power button. I do have the power nap turned on. Maybe that's the problem?

My Retina also has sleep/wake problems. Sometimes it wont sleep, sometimes it wont wake up before a minute has passed. Also has other problems. Im returning this beauty and getting the regular MBP.

I too am having the same problems as the OP on my rMBP.

Having the same issue running 10.8 where it doesn't properly wake from sleep. Very frustrating!

i do have the same problem, it doesnt wake properly. Its either wifi problem or something and then have to force quit all applications and shutdown. Im not techie so i dont understand whats the problem
