Doesn't take long even with apps. I did mine in under 40 mins and that was including downloading / making installer / installing + apps!

I tried to enable TRIM on my MBP, it asked me to reboot, but i think it has killed the HDD !
All I got is this
Anyone got a clue?

Touche
Didn't want to stop this optimisation thing. Working now but installing these updates is ridiculously slow! I think iTunes took over 1 hour to install

How do I find out the name of my mac disk petition?
Will I actually achieve anything with a fresh install? Looking at it now, I think my current build (10.10) is actually just a straight upgrade path from 10.4. Don't think I've ever done a clean install, even after changing hardware.
When you're in the Terminal, just 'cd' to /Volumes and then do an ls. That'll list the volumes.

Am I missing out on something? I've must have downloaded Yosemite like 3 times now from App Store. It's around 5GB right? It says 'Downloaded' but it doesn't give me an option to install? If I reboot my Mac Mini, it only lets me redownload it again?

Click apple icon too left, update.
Well, I posted earlier that I had a stuck update that wouldn't clear.
Also found that I couldn't get Continuity to work either.
Took the plunge and did a complete trash and rebuild. Fortunately not had the machine long so not much to save!
Anyway now all up and running and there are several bits that now look quite a bit different to the in place upgrade install.
The new look seems more consistent and a few other minor tray icons etc have changed slightly.
Continuity also now working!
It also linked my machine login to my Apple ID rather than using a local user. Not sure if that was by design or something I chose without realising, but might be the solution to Continuity.
So, anyone else having problems probably well worth doing a full reinstall even if it is a bit of a pain.

So, not a retina/HiDPI display then.
To be fair I've not tried it as yet. The mini is an HTPC, so if it ain't broke don't fix it. I'll have to try the MBP on the 24" Dell. Helvetica Neue does look a tad spindly compared to Lucida Grande.

The Mac is likely background processing, e.g. Spotlight indexing. Give it a few hours to settle down before making judgements on performance.
Standard vs Retina display :
I've blown the standard one up to 200% (using resize in Preview) for as near a straight comparison as you'll get
