Hello,

 

I own a private macbook pro 2016 (i7 2.7ghz, dont know the exact model) and I find that the animation when switching between desktops lags a tiny bit, in relation to the macbook pro 2013 (which I owned at work). 

Its not like 30 fps or anything but I feels like 50 or so when my macbook from work was butter smooth.

 

Also some web pages also lag whilst scrolling for example youtube.

 

Has any one of you ever experienced this kind of "issue" before?

 

All ideas are welcome, thank you in advance!

If I'm not mistaken Computer Clan (YouTube channel) had problems with funky UI on his 2015? MBP running High Sierra. If your 2016 has HS on it that could very well be the problem.

If you're able to on the problem child, throw HS or something on an external drive and see if it does any better. It's possible you just have a bunked up install for some reason.
