  The Garbage Collector Magic Hack

  

If you experience some lag, my first advice would be to install the GCMH package. It basically changes the garbage-collection rules to ensure that most garbage collection will happen in small bouts while Emacs is idle. After installing it I've never had my Emacs lag on me. This wouldn't address the retina-display issues you mentioned, but I've never experienced those with emacs-plus.
