Hey everyone, last year I got the MacBook M4 air , and I’m hitting a really frustrating performance issue.
The Issue:
Every time I restart the Mac, it works flawlessly for about 10–20 seconds. After that, the UI starts lagging and stuttering significantly—especially when moving windows or scrolling
What I’ve checked/tried so far:
• Activity Monitor: CPU is 99% idle. Memory pressure is healthy (Green) with 0 bytes of swap used.
• Hardware: I ran Apple Diagnostics from the Startup Options menu, and it passed with no issues found.
• Desktop: I cleared all files from my desktop to ensure it wasn't a rendering issue.
Please help me with this issue
