It can be sluggish at times (SB2 13”, maxed out specs), usually on boot when a bunch of background tasks are starting up. I haven’t run Linux on its own on this specific machine, so I don’t have a good comparison. It is tangibly slower than my 15” MBP 2017 when running some compute intensive tasks for work, but that is likely due to differences at the hardware level and not OS. I also have encountered some slowness at the filesystem level, which occasionally annoys me when I’m doing tasks that hit the FS very frequently. It isn’t perfect, but it’s good enough that I don’t notice the warts too frequently. I’m not very fickle though: at this point in my career, I’ve come to the conclusion that all systems suck in their own special ways.
