He must be a ridiculously unlucky guy and gets every Apple devices with problems. If we measure that from the quantity of Apple hate he is spreading on all his posts...

Hey man, no need to be rude. Being frustrated I can understand, to an extent, but this is just way off base. The other guy wasn't even aggressive towards you ..take a chill pill and relax mate
Is this with the Intel HD 4000 iGPU or the Nvidia GT 650M dGPU?
Also with or without transparency?
Thought I'd come in and clarify a few things that have been said in this thread and others. There is indeed much less lag and things generally perform great but retina macs are still struggling with transparency in some cases (try opening the reader sidebar in safari when in the top sites page and look at the frames, or try simply swiping between spaces with this screen open). Also there is still lag in plenty of areas including iTunes scrolling, grid stacks in the dock and most annoyingly, PDF scrolling. The OS X pdf scrolling performance continues to be atrocious, lagging behind what my cheap android phone can do with the same files. Something really needs to be optimised there... Apart from that, the performance upgrades are very good.
Not seeing the lag with the reader sidebar (other than an understandable lag loading the Twitter recommendation tab). But iTunes scrolling lag seems to have been actually exacerbated (not that it was ever butter smooth with my 75K+ collection in any case). iTunes is getting an overhaul with MUSIC in any case, so hopefully that will be addressed. Not seeing any problems with PDF scrolling either. Almost full screen 5K retina, graphics heavy PDF scrolled with a pretty smooth, non-jerky feel. It scrolls better in QuickLook than in Preview though, I'll give you that.
Nice, but I'd like to see more window resizing and scrolling to see how it's improved.
I have El Capitan on a 50GB partition on my factory standard 2012 MacBook Pro (i5 2.5GHZ HD4000 4GB Ram 500GB HDD) and I must say its much much faster than Yosemite, even when I've done a clean install of Yosemite it was never this quick.
All visual effects are on on my El Capitan partition, and are off on my Yosemite partition and its still faster, when Public Beta is released I will probably delete my El Capitan Partition and use it as my main partition as Yosemite sometimes is so slow it becomes unstable.

My mouse disconnects erratically in Yosemite, even in 10.10.4 But interestingly enough it only happens with the magic mouse not the mighty mouse
Try wrapping your batteries so they are held more tightly. Worked for me!
Again, that's your opinion... That's not facts.
And that's your opinion, it's a fact plenty have stability issues with Yosemite.
I think he's one of those people that assumes everybody is experiencing the same problems that he is. When you feel that way, everyone who isn't having problems is lying.
It's a pun on Snow Leopard's performance improvements on its predecessors.
I like it a lot better than the stupid El Capitan name. But hey, us East Coasters look down on California almost as much as they look down on us
OK. I did an over the top upgrade from 10.10.4 B3. It KPed once, then I just woke it up and was brought to another crash error. Beach balls here and there. I'm gonna do a fresh install and restore via TM. Maybe that'll help.
I did notice my battery life has been better under El Cap.
