Decided to downgrade from Lion -> Snow Leopard

[Pav89]

Wanted a fresh install, and had felt that my experience with Snow Leopard was quite a bit faster. Holy cow, was I wrong . Snow Leopard feels so much faster, I can't believe how slow Lion is. Safari is so bad in Lion - takes quite a few seconds to load up, playing youtube videos is a nightmare, opening new tabs is not instant. Total opposite on Snow Leopard. Everything is instant.

I've been carrying out some research, and it seems like a lot of people agree that Snow Leopard is the fastest OS X operating system out there. Does anyone else feel the same?

I also realised that Apple decreased the size of the close/minimise/maximise buttons in Lion. Nice to have them big again.

I will miss full screen app multi touch, but that's it. Snow Leopard is staying with me now. Unless ML is as fast as SL, which I very much doubt.
