Is anyone else having the issue of your Mac running wicked slow after the new El Capitan update? Word, Safari, Preview, and iTunes wouldn't open- they froze and I had to force quit them. Even typing this there is a major lag and the pinwheel appears. What's up with that? So far I hate how slow it's making my mac.
I had the same problem with my mid-2010 IMac, but then I upgraded from El Capitan to Sierra. Huge improvement! Problem solved.
Since I figured it was also a RAM issue, I ordered 16MB of it (from 4MB), but I never installed it. Now I'm wondering whether I even need to.
Huge relief as I was almost ready to order a replacement computer.
yes I know the feeling well... in my case i deselected every single item from spotlight, only then my imac worked fine again.
Burnin' Coal; If your problem is related to the Mail app you will see a high usage of "Memory" not CPU. Check that and if it is indeed equal to your installed memory you will need to delete the Mail log files as instructed at the beginning of this discussion. This worked for me and all has been well ever since.
Update. Have not needed to contact support again. System was almost back to normal after a couple of days. Interestingly enough, I downloaded Safari Restore extension as I kept clicking the red cross in the top left corner and losing all my tabs. Since then I have had no problems! (or spinning balls!)
I was having a similar problem. My late 2014 Imac was running super slow after the upgrade to El Capitan. It would start out ok and then get progressively slower through the day to the point that I was getting the pinwheel for 4 to 5 seconds just to open the system properties window, scrolling web pages was choppy and almost unusable.
I read through this thread tried most everything but nothing worked permanently, I don't use mail so I knew that was not it. In the activity monitor I found that Adobe creative cloud helper process were running my cpu at 95.0% at times. I don't recall which Adobe CC process, I killed 3 of them and after doing so my cpu load when from 80-70% down to 0.80%
For my case it seems to be a problem with Adobe's Creative Cloud software eating up the cpu. I disabled it completely on startup and speed problem is gone. Will be checking with Adobe on this one as a designer I need it working!
Cheers.
OBSERVATION:
I have noticed the my system runs fairy fast some days and not so fast other days. Still not as fast as my old iMac with OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard). If anyone could give any indication as to why some days El Capitan runs slow I would be grateful.
I have noticed that once you open an app., close it and reopen, the second time is much quicker.
And to those just getting started with El Capitan - give your system at least 3 days to level itself. Seems there is a lot going on in the background that just has to catch up with itself.
Same issue with my Mac .. SInce my upgrade last night its been a pain to operate my Macbook
@Miguel.apple : i tried the following location but didnt find any huge files

You have adware on your hard drive. Please download and run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac to remove it, following any and all instructions the programs prompts you.
I initially ignored replies that discussed Mac Mail as part of the problem because I don't use Mac Mail. However, after reading through the entire thread, I found there were so many replies that discussed Mail that it would't hurt to try the suggested fixes. Deleting the logs in Mail fixed my problem.

Thank you. I just moved the zip files to trash and I am hoping it will help. But I am having problems w the calendar after update to 10.11.2. I reinstalled the original version of the calendar, just to be able to have one that works. But tnot very well.
Actually it solved the malware issue but the Wifi issue was pertinent. When i dug deeper into the issue, it seemed to be an issue with the El Capitan OS's power management issue where it was shutting down the wifi. So i used the Shift+Control+option+power at the same time and reset the system management controller and now the issue is solved.
Thank you very much for posting this:) My mac was tremendously slow after installing El Capitan. I followed your instructions and it worked 100%. Problem solved!
so after so much drama, I have finally decided to say goodbye to El Capitan once and for all. I saved everything on time machine and deleted the bloody thing, installed a fresh yosemite from usb. It was a big mistake upgrading from Yosemite in first place. My iMac 27" feels great again without el capitan, not going back. 2 last months were a nightmare.
I Had no idea that it was possible to go back to previous versions. Now that upgrades are free we are too free to upgrade thinking this upgrade is gonna be better. But using a 6 year old iMac it was probably not a good idea.
hi Gina you can!!!! just google how to install fresh Yosemite from usb. It is a very easy process Im not an expert and got it right and going. I now have a working and super fast imac again!!!
remember to backup everything in an external hard drive first, i use time machine so can get everything back, including my itunes libraries, as for example, when you plug your iphone in this new system there wont be anything in the libraries, so u need to rescue it from the time machine ... this is just one thing among others to consider. It took me 3 full days to get everything back in my folders etc...its a painful process but worth it at the end.
El Capitan running slowly?
