Yes
Does anybody else have an iMac 5K?
My lightroom 6 is really laggy.
Do you think its because it has to render so many pixels?

Sometimes after I have done lots of processing with RAW files it slows down a little

I have LR 5.7 and the 5K Retina
 
I know that LR 5 was laggy because of the huge amount of pixels. From what I understand though, this was resolved with LR 6 with the introductions of GPU acceleration.

Do you have GPU acceleration turned on in settings?
 
I have LR and a 5K IMac. I've upgraded the ram to max and have not had any issues.
 
GPU acceleration can help with lag when moving sliders about in development - but it can't help with loading/opening times.
It helps with heavy maths, but not moving about big gobs of data.

Are you 100% sure about that?

Because when the OP says "My lightroom 6 is really laggy.", I'm pretty sure that means he has Lightroom 6.
