You cannot compare Eevee and BlenderInternal / Blender 2.79 viewport like that.

Are we talking about rendered viewport? lookdev? solid in 2.8?
(all are smooth here in the startup scene)

Other than that, there is not enough information to proceed here.
(could you share a video of your viewport being "choppy and slow"?)

Marking as incomplete until we get an idea of what you mean by "choppy and slow"

EEVEE viewport rendering still needs optimizations, particularly on macOS it's not that efficient yet.

We do not need to keep open a bug report for that though, it's ongoing work.
