Same problem here. I've got the new haswell MBP 15 inch with 16GB RAM. Hoped with this amount of power OS Mavericks would work flawless. Disappointing! Also swiping between desktops and starting up mission control lags a lot. Not a nice user experience! Although it's a .0 version of OS X Apple need to get this done ASAP! Really annoying!!!

Same here, MacBook Air 2013, power enough but much lag. Really disapointing, hope Apple fixes this problem ASAP!

Did any of you install Autocad? If you did, then this could probably be the reason lag started happening. It happened to me; After I installed Autocad (on Mavericks), I had lag when I swiped to see the Mission Control. The problem was solved simply after running Autocad again and quitting. Weird... 😐

No AutoCAD here and I 'graduated' from Snow Leopard!

What I fnd is that though there is a sticky lag swiping with two fingers, swiping fast does the trick. But there is still a stickiness that is irritating. By clicking on the navigation buttons, it is perfect.

I've got the exact same problem on my mid-'11 MBP. As other users have mentioned, the workaround is to make sure you swipe fast. The dev previews of 10.9.1 say that there's unspecified "graphics fixes", so hopefully when it's released it'll fix the problem.

Hopefully...

+1 on disk utility open lag

Mavericks is such a piece of c**p... never had so many budgs and Mac crashes ever.

Did a clean install of 10.9.1 from 10.7.5 and was greeted with this lovely lag. Hopefully Apple fixes this...

I just updated to 10.9.2 and the launchpad lag appears to be gone. Hopefully that's the same for others...

10.9.2 solved this problem now.
