You won't notice any lag right after boot, it happens over time and that depends very much on your usage style.

I am getting confused. I am under the impression that it happens right out of the box. If it gets choppy overtime, isn't that memory usage problem? You would need to restart your macbook pro to fix it.

Yes, and you will notice the problem more and more the more you read MacRumors....
Bingo, memory could indeed be the culprit here. It does NOT happen right out of the box. When you boot, all the choppiness is gone, its buttery smooth under after a long while and after having many apps open and running. That is why I'm highly sceptical to those that claim their machines don't have the problem or that this might be a hardware issue.
Be sceptical all you want but the truth is that there are plenty of people that don't have the problem that you are describing. Why not exchange your machine for a new one.

Because i've seen the same problem on every machine I've tried. I have a colleague with the exact same 13" as mine, with same specs and...surprise...its there!
For me it's present right from boot. So seems like we're dealing with different problems.

I just did a clean install of Yosemite without restoring a backup. The UI lag was there still. Seems it's either a hardware problem or otherwise the lag should be the same for everyone, and others (like me) were only more keen to notice it. I doubt that's the case. Going to give Apple a call next and see what they think. Hoping to get a replacement. Maybe going to an Apple store and comparing my rMBP with other ones could help.
Have you tested with contrast feature on? If you see no noticeable difference your issue might indeed be different.
...I'm pretty sure that its an issue that is affecting everyone, but some people just notice while others don't... Thus, for those who claim that they don't see it, its probably because the lag isn't egregiously bad, but to the more careful eye, its definitely there.
Hey, turning it on helps noticeably with the lag, as I've already noticed before. I'm just not happy with such an ugly bandage. Also I suspect that many others dont have it as bad as I do.
If you go ahead and have it replaced by apple, I would be really curious to know how your replacement machine fares.
Ive got an i7/16 coming tomorrow to replace this i52.7/8. Im hopeful it'll be able to handle the 4k display better.
