Lagging UI

I had these lags on my old machine running El Capitan (Haswell, GTX 970).

Then I bought a new machine (Coffee Lake, GTX 1080) and installed High Sierra, and the lags persisted.

The lags: TotalFinder tabs animation is stuttery and slow, navigation in TotalFinder is slow; Chrome tabs animation is stuttery and laggy, chrome itself is laggy; Launchpad animations are dropping frames (slightly); Even switching between windows has a slight delay.

nVidia web driver is installed.

Clover config is the default one + nVidia web driver checkmark + SMBIOS 18,3.

Kexts are FakeSMC + nVidiaDrvFixUp + Lilu + IntelMausiEthernet.

Drivers installed are EmuVariableUefi-64.efi (required for the video card) + OsxAptioFixDrv2.

The hackintosh is unusable, and Windows on the same machines is lightning fast compared to it.

What could cause these lags?

It´s been a while since you posted this - but I suddenly experience some of the same issues:
• Dock unresponsive and/or extremely slow

• Mouse-clicks not sticking to menu (e.g. have to hold down mouse when picking from top menu.

• UI overall just laggy and/or unresponsive as hell

• Especially bad when running Firefox and Chrome simultaneously.

• No clear indication in Activity Monitor of anything sucking the memory and/or CPU

• Computer brand spanking new (see specs in signature) running High Sierra 10.13.2

• Restart doesn´t help

 

• I had exactly same issue with older machine (running El Capitan) just before transitioning to new machine.
• Thought it was related to a restart I did, where I changed languages which F´ed everything up. 
 

These issues came out of nowhere, meaning I didn´t just update macOS or install anything that slowed things down.

Any suggestions?

I've been experiencing the same issue, started on Z87 upon upgrading to High Sierra, after upgrading to Z370 (and updating config.plist accordingly) it still persists. It's very visible here: http://madebyevan.com/webgl-water/ 

Long thread about it on another community, some claim to have to not have the problem, many do. Replacing my 1070 TI with a RX 560 it goes away, as it does for everyone else doing the same. 

This appears to be High Sierra + Nvidia related (metal v3?).
