Yes, by all means base your upgrade decision on Seismic's personal experience.

Ive had to downgrade my new 15" rMBP system 3 times now due to Safari taking forever to launch a search and all the UI lag.
Changing DNS does not fix the issue as well as the WIFI issues.
If these are fixed ill upgrade
FWIW, 10.10.3 is much less laggy on my 2013 rMBP 13". With 10.10.2 I had to turn off transparency to avoid choppy Mission Control. With 10.10.3 Mission Control is nice and smooth up to about 20 windows. After that it gets a bit choppy but not terrible. 10.10.2 was very choppy with 20 windows.
Transparency off is still smoother at high window counts. With 20 windows I can easily see the difference between transparency on and off. With 10 windows I can't.
But I think it's a significant improvement.

Wish I could downgrade but mine came with Yosemite from the factory and won't allow it

I don't think I'm alone in experiencing it. A quick google and you'll find it's not an isolated incident. Much discussion on this forum alone about it.
It's my opinion that any slowness in Yosemite is because you're running it from a spinning hard drive. Upgrade to an SSD and I think you'll see a night and day difference.
I have iCloub Photo Libary & Photo Stream disabled...Then why does this process have to load every 10 sec?

Missing Camera and Lens Metadata after iPhoto Import
I've noticed that the Photos for Mac app seems to have "lost" all of the Camera and Lens Metadata associated with each of my photos. Has this happened to anyone else?
No matter which photo I choose, the Info inspector window shows "No Camera Information" and "No Lens Information". I've confirmed that the Camera and Lens metadata is still present in the original iPhoto Library.
If I create a new iPhoto Library with just a dozen or so pictures and then choose that Library when launching Photos for Mac, by pressing the Option key while clicking the Icon, the photos are imported with the Metadata intact. Clearly something went wrong with the import of my much larger main iPhoto library. (The main library has over 100,000 photos in it.)
I'm wondering if there is some way to force Photos for Mac to re-index the Metadata. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Michael

After about 8 hours Photos stopped consuming the mass amounts of CPU.
However, every time I quit Photos and re-open it the CPU gets sucked yet again. Sometimes for 1-2 hours, sometimes 5-10 minutes. Have then left it for an hour or two each time, and last night left it going overnight, in case it perhaps is still doing some more crap that it's not telling me about.
Problem continues to persist - each time it is launched, and sometimes when switching between albums, it starts sucking mass amounts of CPU to the point where my MacBook refuses to charge its battery and the machine gets hot enough to cook a meal.
Also unimpressed that it doesn't remember basic things that iPhoto used to - for instance every time you re-open it the app doesn't return you to the album you were last in, and when you return to an album it doesn't return you to the position you were last at. When you have tens of thousands of photos has now become an utter pain in the ass

OS X 10.10.3 has NOT fixed the WiFi issues i've experienced through all 10.10.x builds (continuous disconnections) on my mid-2012 rMBP. Reverting back to Mavericks... once again. Guess I'll just wait for the next "major OS X release".
Thank you, Apple!
Thank you, Apple!
Well that just answered my question....is it safe to upgrade. Nope! I'll stick with 10.10.2
Same Mac model, same problem here. Glad to see I'm not alone with this problem. I've downgraded to .2 again until there's a fix.
I've upgraded several 2012 Minis to 10.10.3 without any trouble at all. Did you try to troubleshoot the panic? It could simply be some software that needs updating.
Thanks for the information.
Well, everything's up to date. The problem is that both panic reports showed some different results:
- First one: Process: Photos, Backtrace: Graphics Frameworks (IOGraphics...)
- Second one: Process: iCloudHelper, no backtrace
The only similarity in both cases has been the last loaded kext: IOBluetooth...
On the kernel extension site I only have Little Snitch as 3rd party kext running.
Between the panics I had another crash - freezing of the Dock and "half of the screen" - couldn't start any new apps, only log out which caused the login screen to crash again and again until I forced a reboot.
So it could be Little Snitch, BetterTouchTool or something else.
I've got some work to do this week, so I had to restore it for the moment. But I'll give it another try soon. Maybe someone else like rishey could tell what caused his panics and we can narrow it down.
Summary so far...
Cons:
-Possible WiFi issues
-Possible email issues
-Possible UI lag
-Possible kernel panics
-Multiple possible update issues
-Photos CPU hog issues

back in aperture it was the view that was different, albums were more polished and allowed slide shows, projects could be filled with 1000s of blanks

it is indexing. give it a while
I'm just keeping a mental tally of the thread... still deciding if I should upgrade from 10.9.5...
Since you're already on Yosemite, I'd advise you to upgrade to 10.10.3.
Me? Still on 10.9.5, and for what I'm hearing and reading, I'll be keeping it for a long time...
