Is anyone else experiencing a massive slow down of Rapidweaver since upgraded to El Capitan?

Depends on where you’re seeing it. Reports here and elsewhere suggest that things are faster than ever on El Capitan. Might be worth checking if there’s any plugin updates available.

The entire app has slowed to a crawl. I notice it mostly with stacks because most of my pages are stacks pages.

If you start a new project, with built-in plugins only, does this still happen?
