[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1545275, member: 24098"] Nope. Straight upgrade, no frills. In fact, this is a first for me, I typically always do a clean install. But since Mavericks looked/looks like a pretty mildly warm-over of Mountain Lion, I saw no need to install clean this time. I may do it later just to be sure I'm not leaving any droppings behind, but so far, I can't complain. I will tell you that during the first hour I was running it, my fans were on full and there was definitely something weird going on - at least initially. Spotlight didn't say it was indexing, but the mdworker process told a different story. However, once we got past that first hour, it seemed fine. Yeah, I did have a click around Activity Monitor, especially after that initial CPU spike I mentioned above. Great improvements there for sure. I can now actually quantify why Chrome is such a battery hog. [/QUOTE]
