The situation is comparable to comparing the speed of Windows XP to subsequent versions of Windows that evolved out of Vista.

Critics are right that to some extent 'bloatware' had dulled the increased efficiency of newer code but newer CPUs are so much faster than what the OP has that it hardly matters for the way 99% of OSX users actually work. Snow Leopard was a first iteration product and while good for its time is very inefficient compared to subsequent iterations of the operating system code. Note - if you're going to use VMs, make sure your RAM is maxed out. I have to say that of the three versions of OS X, 10.6.8 is BY FAR the fastest.

I also download each new OS as it's released, and store it on an external HD that way it shows up in Purchases in my App Store account, so can always download it again in future despite its not being available in the Store in the usual way (Apple prevent users downloading old OS's from Mavericks onwards, i.e.

10.6.8 as a virtual machine (VM) in Parallels which means I don't have to reboot.

OS 8.6 - also in emulation mode, but much more often, for nostalgia!.

System 7.5.3 occasionally in emulation mode.

I only use the internet when ' I ' want it !!ДЇWIW I run the following on my 2011 iMac (originally released with either 10.6 or 10.7): I must say that the idea of 'partitioning' two different versions sounds useful - I fear the day my older system woill no longer access the Internet, so I think I'll keep an SSD wit 'El Capitan' on it, just in case. I am FAR from an expert, and had to downgrade in 2 steps - I could find no way to get to 10.6.8 without spending several days with 10.6.3, but I'm'home' now, and hope to stay. While I was 'gone' yahoo declared my browswer 'Out of date' and so did my Amazon Prime music streamer - but Firefox still works for the amazon part, so I'm OK. That convinced me to drop back from ElCapitan to 10.6.8, and so far I'm glad. When she was recently there she mentioned possibly 'Upgrading' from 10.6.8, and the guy was very emphatic: 'Don't Do It !! '

I 'built' my iMac from parts of 2 old iMacs (I maintain mine & my sister's) and she has had occasion to get (paid) help from a private store specializing in Mac products. I only use the internet when ' I' want it !! Probably the worst thing about El Capitan was the complete change in 'SPOTLIGHT' to an internet resource, rather than a search engine for my computer and it's two remote hard drives - I could not find much of anything !! Like you, cost is not an issue.ДЄbout 2 months ago, having asked basically the same questions, I - FOOLISHLY - 'upgraded' my 2007 iMac to El Capitan.Д®l Capitan kept trying to force things on me that I didn't want, would not allow me to keep things where I wanted them on my desktop and made just downloading images stored on my camera's SD card a real 'adventure' rather than the simple and intuitive process I'd used on 10.6.8. An iPad has replaced all but a low percent of my computer use and I've been underwhelmed by Apple's new machines for quite some time. I've gone from a new computer each year to no new purchases for quite a while. If it looks like my boxes are old and newer hardware might be called for. If you do it, I'd recommend hanging on to a clone of 10.6 for a while and doing a fresh install. For that reason alone I stick with it but there is a clone of 10.6 for each machine's OS still kept updated for the potential day I throw in the towel and rollback. I run 10.8 because I shoot with a Fuji XTrans camera and wanted to go back to Aperture as I was not getting along with Lightroom's library. A 2.53 mini has been left on 10.6 even though I prefer the same OS on all machines in the house. Benefits are limited to being able to run Aperture 3.4.4/5 and Mail runs better and Aperture 3.4.4/5. While I should do a fresh install, there are other mitigating reason why I still consider a rollback: some of my old utilities don't run on 10.8 and there are no new releases, Safari runs very slow, the Finder is slower.

It took me two weeks to get everything running correctly.

The upgrade on the iMac was the worst install I've ever done. The fresh install on the Air went well and it runs well. I do use 10.8 on a 2.8 iMac and a 2.13 Air. I've rolled back 3 friends computers from 10.7 or.

I also maintain about a dozen Mac's for family and friends.
