If it's Intel-compiled apps, it's also that Rosetta is translating them to run on M1 when they're first run, as I understand it. Both of these are first-time launch issues, so comparing launch times on the second launch is probably more reasonable.

  Good point. I'm really surprised they don't translate during installation (ahead of time).

    I believe they do.

      In certain cases, such as when they come from the App Store. I believe other apps do not get this.

        I think Installer.app triggers the AOT translation, too?
