I just upgraded to Mountain Lion on a new 2011 Quad Core i7 Mini Server with 8gb of ram & 2 7200rpm hard drives.
Although so far I'm happy with the improvement in video encoding, the whole system seems really sluggish ... Especially opening Apps takes a long time compared to my Core 2 Duo 2.66GHz Mini.
Is this normal for Mountain Lion?
No.
Should I spring for an SSD?
Maybe, but first I suggest doing a nuke'n'pave. If you "migrated," you may have brought over a lot of stuff that constipates Mountain Lion.
