Now I'm not saying anyone with an early 2009 iMac should do the upgrade, just that for me it seems to have worked out quite well. There's no way in Hades I'm going to attempt the jump to Mojave, that would really be pushing it, but now I know I can safely keep using my iMac, and receive those security updates, as I save up for a much newer machine in the next year or so. The 8 GB of RAM is likely what's helping that work so well. I know it's not officially supported, so I did this at my own risk, but I can say on my end that everything seems to be working without a hitch. So I backed everything up, and used a patcher. I was worried about not getting security updates once Mojave was released in September (I'm assuming it will be released then), and so I was going to try and upgrade to Sierra, and someone (I forget who) said I should jump straight to High Sierra instead, because it works better with old hardware than Sierra, and I figured why not? I'm running High Sierra on my early 2009 iMac, having just upgraded from El Capitan, and it has received a significant boost in performance.
