Well I have the 2011 13" MacBook Pro model with Mountain Lion installed and it is performing pathetically as it takes a minute to turn on then pages takes 30 seconds to load, google chrome hangs up contantly and it also has the stock HDD running at 5400rpm and the 4GB of RAM.

Prior to installing Mountain Lion, did you run any kind of maintenance programs on your Mac? My understanding is that some types of maintenance (like running Repair Permissions) should be done prior to upgrading to a new OS. There are programs out there that will perform diagnosis and optimize systems but I only run the one built in so I am not sure what would be a good suggestion for a Mac Maintenance Program.
