Why is it lagging?
Hi, I bought this laptop in belief that I will get a responsible device which I can use for a couple years and nothing will go wrong and it will run smoothly.. that it will be just solid. But after a month I've started being suspicious about its performance.. Sometimes it just lags while switching the desktop or for example lagging writing like I write it down and it the laptop slowly fill it with lags.. i hope you can imagine.. I don’t know if its issue of all “entry level” macbooks pro but I believed that this laptop would be better than any other windows laptop. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem like that. Thanks for response.

Isn’t more about RAM? This is my memory usage.. I don't run any heavy app.. I have opened safari and spotify.. nothing else right now and it’s usage of memory is 5,5gb.. my friend has MacBook Air and has about 3,5 usage of RAM and he has more app opened.. I've bought used macbook from one shop. Is it possible that they sold me damaged device?

Well, I've deleted disc and reinstalled Mac OS X and when I for example scroll on facebook it lags is it normal? Idk..
Is this a good question?

Make a backup of your system on an external drive, the reset your system to factory defaults as you got something wild running using your RAM.
Only re-install your apps from the Apps Store and recover your data from your backup.

Are you sure?
80 Mega bits is quite slow! Are you really saying 80 Mega Bytes?

You're getting close ;-}
Focus on my previous comment I have a feeling something wild is running could even be a virus or malware! Someone could be snooping on what you have on your system and/or what you are doing.
