What is EVERYTHING? Do you want to format or do a clean install or do you just want to delete all your personal data?

And regarding Interfacelift, what image takes forever to load? What OS X 10.10 Yosemite version do you use on what exact hardware?

Basically delete everything and see if yosemite runs better. and for interfacelift it is any picture. I didn't have this problem until I downloaded the yosemite public beta.
My specification for the macbook pro is 2.5GHz dual-core
Intel Core i5 processor (Turbo Boost up to 3.1GHz) with 3MB L3 cache
4GB of 1600MHz DDR3 memory
500GB 5400-rpm hard drive
Intel HD Graphics 4000

Or worse, since you might delete something important, since everything is VAGUE.

Anyway, you could always try a CLEAN INSTALL of OS X 10.10 Yosemite if you are unhappy with the performance of the BETA.

It may be due to the Safari BETA being a beta.
Tried any other browser yet to see, if the problem is still occurring?

----------

If you really want to try a clean install, then follow this support article: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11273

Hmm.

We're sorry.

We can't find the article you're looking for.

Please return to the Apple Support homepage.

I was browsing Interfacelift on google chrome. Safari is even more slow but I can understand that since it's a beta.
I also reinstalled Yosemite but it didn't help.

Of all the 5 browsers you have used on your mac. Which one do you think work best?

Safari hands down runs the best out of all the browsers on the mac. And since Mavericks, it's faster than Chrome or Firefox in my experience and uses less battery than those too.

When you guys click the download button for any images at interfacelift does the picture load up immediately or you guys have to wait a couple of seconds for it to load completely?

With safari, it takes about 2-3 seconds for me to download completely, depending on the wallpaper. Remember, these are high resolution pictures. So give them time to download.

Just erased everything and now I am back on maverick. interfacelift is performing even more slower than before. I think this might be a hardware problem, since i didn't have this problem until I got my logic board replaced a week ago.
