Tim,
A day or more with no restart or shut down? I can leave it on. Other than these problems, it seems to be a good upgrade. One thing that went away was the need to connect to my wifi after the Mac went to sleep. Nice.Hi,

Usually, right after an install of Mavericks, there is optimizing of your HD/SSD and indexing of the files that goes on for the first while in the background. Just leave your computer logged in for a bit and this will continue doing its thing and the slowness/busy-ness should go away.

Later...

  I would not say its slow, but rather, its busy doing something that did not 
happen in Mountain Lion. I have not added anything new to Mavericks so not sure 
what it is. Whatever it is, its causing VO to stutter badly but after about 30 
seconds, its ok. Cold boot or restart, same thing.

. . . what if it were true?

Hi!
I thought i was alone with this slowlyness thing with voiceover at startup.
I wonder if it has to do with how old the mac is.
And ofcourse how much to load at startup.
I have a mac mini with 8 Gb of ram.
mid 2011.

  Finally upgraded to

Mavericks 10.9.5 from

Mountain Lion.

  Some things I would like to

address. One, at least once,

when starting from a cold boot.

Finder crashed and I had

trouble using Voiceover to get

out of it.

  Also the App Store crashed when I ran it from the Apple menu, sent report to 
Apple.

  Did some more cold boots

and while Finder did not crash

again it appears that something

is going on after the login but

things settle down, I would

say, in about 15-20 seconds.

During this time Voiceover is

sort of choppy. This did not

happen in Mountain Lion.

  While checking out this OS,

there are some oddities. One,

when in Launchpad for instance,

when navigating, sometimes an

item is spoken twice but not all

of them and not each time I

navigate to one that had been

spoken twice. I have been

experimenting with verbosity

but not sure how to get the

right balance between hearing

too much and not enough.

  Overall the upgrade seems good except for the above.
