    Yes it runs like a dog since the upgrade – meaning the performance is poor, editing is jerky over fade transitions, rendering (the green line) takes forever now etc. Some functions did improve definitively but the performance has gone backwards. I have a Ryzen 3900x 12Cores 24Threads and PS24 uses no more than 6% of CPU and 10% of GPU so it’s not my PC. But I do notice 1 core is heavily loaded and the rest are doing almost nothing.
