In this post I will record and share my experiences (be positive, negative or neutral).
Positives
- Performance has been significantly improved in all areas (system, already and newly installed Apple- and non-Apple software products)
- The UI has been refined and thus everything looks and moves smoother
- Mail 5 has really become excellent for mail reading
- The kernel is 64-bit on my Core 2 Duo iMac, too
- Mission control significantly improves the efficiency in a multi-desktop work environment
- The iOS-like spell and grammar check with the instant proposal reduces the time of error corrections
- FaceTime is included
- Launchpad makes starting of apps only with the mouse possible (I always used Spotlight)
- Many self-evident features such as the merging of identically named folders when copying with Finder have finally arrived
- Dashboard on an own space doesn't make sense to me, but it also doesn't hurt as the original setting can be restored
- The "natural" scrolling direction is as beneficial to me as the traditional and it can be restored as well
Negatives
- Launchpad is unstable: Crashes and rebuilds the database, thus the folders are only temporary
- appleprofilepolicyd is running even without a server and there is no way to turn it off
- applepushserviced is running even without a server and there is no way to turn it off
- Lion crashed due to a kernel panic after a few hours of usage (bug report submitted)
- Safari consumes more than 1.5 GB memory in scenarios, where Safari and Chrome are still under 200 MB
