This thread is most interesting. I recently updated my iPad 2 -note not Air- from iOS 5.1.1 to 8.4 as more and more websites started to not work anymore. Now it feels like windows 95: blue screens all the time, though now in black with a half eaten apple, and it looks like crap. But I knew the last part before. Anyway, I blamed it on my now almost obsolete hardware so I was really surprised to read that even with the most recent devices you see almost the same awful performance.
I just tried what you suggested and turned off Apple music (don't show Apple music), which I hadn't used anyway. It seems to have helped quite a bit. The whole device seems much snappier but still far from what it used to be. Hope this will improve even more. I like the new word suggestions of the keyboard but not the BSODs. I mean, before I saw that apple only when I turned off my iPad, which I did once a year or so. I just flipped the cover and it made 'click'. Now I flip the cover, go to the kitchen, come back and hear the click coming from the device sitting on the desk. It got faster now but there's still a delay of several seconds before I hear that click. Impressive. Anyway enough of that rant. Let's hope this gets better.
