for some reason I'm not surprised the AMD gpu lost ground. My 2011 with an AMD gpu is clearly performing poorly in..everything.

They need to release an AMD drive update ASAP. The slowdown I'm seeing in every-day tasks (like panning between spaces) is akin to using a system that ONLY has integrated graphics. Update these GPU drivers, Apple. FFS.
