Lion OS and Logic issue?

I just loaded the newest Mac OS "lion" on my iMac. Suddenly Logic is running really really slowly as are other aspects of the computer, but this is a home recording forum. Anyone heard of this, experienced this, can anything be done? Thanks
 
Sorry man, still haven't upgraded to Lion yet (and not sure if I ever will). How long ago did you install Lion? I've heard that it can be slow while it's setting everything up initially.
 
Here's a hint....

NEVER upgrade your OS until:
A) It's been out 6months to a year so you are not an unpaid beta tester or
B) You have to so that your programs will run.

I've had it installed around 5 days. I also read that it "takes time" , I just can't get a straight answer as to why? I'm not super computer savvy, so that doesn't really make sense to me, does it to anyone else?
 
Well, if you have a lot of files, it might be because Lion has a different Spotlight metadata format than Snow Leopard (I think) and it has to rebuild the Spotlight stores (by re-indexing every file on your hard drive). This could take a few minutes or a few weeks, depending on your system. If that's the problem, you should see mdimporter using a lot of CPU in Activity Monitor (Applications/Utilities). Beyond that, no idea.
 
I upgraded to Lion right after it came out and haven't had a single issue with Logic... I've recorded up to 5 tracks simultaneously on it and have had no glitches... sorry this isn't really any help, just figured I'd balance out the negative posts...
