Beachballs and almost unresponsive after Sierra upgrade
Just as a sample, it took 1 min to write that question title because after 2-3 keystrokes, the beachball would show up.
With the Yosemite upgrade my MacBook Pro was OK but after El Capitan I started noticing the slowness but it was still ok.
Now with Sierra upgrade, my MacBook Pro (mid-2012) has become completely unusable. A spinning beachball now shows up after just 3 key strokes, 3-5 seconds before the menu opens on right click, even watching a video now is an impossible task.
How do i fix? Is there a way to find the OS X installer and go back to to an older OS version like Mavericks or Yosemite? Or any other suggestion?
The etrecheck report is given below. Any advice or suggestion will be highly welcome.

Happened To me as well,
only I had no idea what was coming after using 10.6.8 for years-
I had no intention of updating 10.6.8, running $3K worth of pro image video apps.
If there was an issue.
I had Apple rep on the phone only because a spare cracked screen iPad in back ground entered my Apple ID, and cause major lock out.
Apple agent freaks out unless I upgraded then hung up the next agent when called, saw his report,, said he's sorry you ended up with a jerk.
Agent #2 fixes my ID, and I update to ElCapo,, and it wipes out all pro software.
Its never once suggested Yosemite, to save it.
Now $5K laptop is loaded with $3.00 cell phone apps.
Pretty much ends the Apple regime for me.
At some point, the boxed $5K laptop will undergo full rebuild.
Never to go online again.
