I have a similar spec 2012 MBP. Are you using Trim Enabler? Otherwise, you may have lost a lot of SSD performance. Also, do you monitor RAM usage? Browsers can eat up your RAM. OS X needs RAM for disk caching for snappy performance.

I did on an older drive, but upgraded the drive in December, and lo and behold, it's not on. Rebooting now to see how this affects things. Thanks.

When using Trim Enabler, you basically have to re-check it after every system software update. (Not apps, but the OS.) I have the app set up start automatically, so I can take a look. I think there are paid options for more convenient facilities.
