We went to an Apple store, showed them the facts, one Macbook on El Capitan, the other one on Sierra (yes it's a long time ago) I have a friend with the same Macbook as me. I talked about it to see if I'm the only one experiencing the issue.

I remembered how macOS was faster in the past, so I decided to give it a try and install El Capitan on my Macbook, And yes, EVERYTHING was faster (and you need to play around to get it installed because apple has probably "forgotten to renew the certificates"). And these are also patched for meltdown and Spectre. But, okay, GNU/Linux is known to be faster, but it's not normal to have such a big difference. I installed GNU/Linux, and saw the same improvements as you: more responsive system, faster compilation. It could be because of the new improvements or the patched Meltdown and Spectre. no no, this is about "I want my computer to get his speed back".įirst, I noticed that the entire system was being slower an slower after every upgrade.

This is not at all about macOS is better, GNU/Linux is better. I will take any time that would be needed. I know I don't know enough about low level OS components and compilers, therefore if you have the time, explain me like I'm five. I am totally open to any tests, any suggestion.

MacBook Pro (Retina 13, early 2015) - MacBookPro12,1 I will share any additional data I can find. I also saw that the binary X86PlatformPlugin changed but I did not any further investigation on it.

I could see that ist from X86PlatformPlugin.kext inside IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext changed (this file is related to my Mac model) but I'm unsure about this one. What I understand here is that I got performances around the one I could get with Sierra. I replaced the kext in my setup of Catalina with the one from El Capitan, ran the same tests, got these results (with tcc) : make -j5 5.75s user 2.21s system 278% cpu 2.862 total Kext replacement - significant improvementsĪfter some investigations, I found that IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext could be the culprit (or one of them). MacOS Catalina 10.15 (slow) 6,01s user 3,35s system 193% cpu 4,827 totalīuild time is multiplied by almost 5 vs Ubuntu 20.04 which takes less than one second.

Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11 (fast) 3,04s user 1,18s system 316% cpu 1,332 total Things I tested always on the same computer with this dummy repo edrflt/build_speed : If anybody needs more specific data, do not hesitate.Įdit: I tried to replace a kext and got significant improvements, see below. Switching to a GNU/Linux distro would be nice if I could. I need macOS for the iOS/tvOS toolchain, therefore I cannot switch. I am not sure about what to do, have anybody ecountered this ?

I also used tcc 0.9.27, built from source, with a dummy make+C project, see below.

GNU/Linux and Windows are also much faster, more like El Capitan was.īy slower, I mean twice (or more) the time to build a simple C project (from 5-6 seconds to 15 seconds), the whole system is really sluggish, I really think that it is a macOS issue.įor information, I tested mainly with gcc-9 and clang-10 with my school projects.

Reinstalling El Capitan (even today) solves the issue. Since macOS Sierra or High Sierra, macOS has become really, really slow.
