Question

am I the only one with iOS 8 iMessage lagging

I'm sure I'm not.

Every time I open my iMessage the keyboard slowly pulls up onto the screen. It started doing it since I updated to iOS 8 on my iPhone 5S and now it's still on my iPhone 6+. It also seems to lag while I'm sending a text and I'm receiving a text at the same time. The new message coming in disappears down behind the keyboard. Small issue but it's starting to get annoying. I hope Apple fixes this bug with an update soon. iOS 8 in general seems to lag a lot more than iOS 7 so far. It's not just iMessage. My "Paper" Facebook app also went crazy after the iOS 8 install, I just deleted it because of that. It was updated for iOS 8 but didn't work.

Or is there a fix to this already?

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8

No, same here. I notice the same as you describe, sometimes I think the message I'm sending disappeared, but in a couple seconds it sends and shows up. Plus, when in a message chain if I receive more messages (from the same person), my messages arrow in the top left will indicate that I have unread messages (example (2) ), I have to go back to the main message screen and back into the same chain I was just in to clear the (2)... strange since I already read those messages. Seems like a message syncing issue, worth reporting to Apple.
