What bugs have you found? Have you reported them to Apple?

I haven't found any since the 10.9.1 update. They fixed the quicklook slowness bug which was my only complaint. Mavericks is one of the most polished OS X release I have used, behind Snow Leopard.

(not op) I have 4 reported to Apple about Mavericks and one (Quicktime) was fixed with 10.9.1. The other 3 are on the Finder, first appeared in 10.9, and were not fixed in 10.9.1. Mavericks has the buggiest Finder I have seen on a 10.x release. It is a pain to have to restart Finder multiple times a day.

I would agree with you if Apple hadn't released 10.9.1, but honestly, Apple has fixed the Finder issues for me.

Quicklook is still slower compared to Mountain Lion for me, so I hope they make it faster still.

Move some picture files from one folder to another with preview item on and watch the finder hang after about twenty files. It is damn near unusable at this point. I gave up for big sorting and just have a button on the finder toolbar that opens a terminal in the folder the window is showing and do copies that way.

I have a weird issue where, after upgrading, opening the Activity Monitor causes a process called 'systemstats' to balloon to >1.5GB memory and peg the CPU. Doesn't seem to be just a startup thing, because it does it indefinitely until I kill the process (closing Activity Monitor doesn't fix it). Googling around turns up some other people with that issue but no obvious diagnosis.
