Does teams use more CPU/Ram resources than it should ... definitely.
Does the Apple MBP i9 laptops have terrible performance under load ... definitely.
Any number of things (compiling, crashplan backups, video conf teams/zoom/bluejean, etc) causes the CPU load to spike, the laptop to get too hot, fans spin up loudly, and huge thermal throttling that continues until the system is idle for awhile.
Seems like about half the blame is Apple's.
- droopyEyelids 4y agoShould a video chat client, running on a computer with hardware video encoders, make the computer work as hard as compelling software, or scanning compressing and transmitting the entire hard drive?
- cyberge99 4y agoNo. I’m on a state of the art M1 Max and it takes 20-30 seconds to start Teams. About 15-30 seconds to join a meeting. On my intel mbp it was even worse. Any other app loads near instantly (aside from Affinity Photo, which I expect). If there’s a fault in Teams for Mac it’s either due to incompetent design/implementation or maliciousness.
- dkonofalski 4y agoI think this is all on Microsoft's shoulders. I have an M1 Max machine, an i9 machine and a PC with an i7 and Teams runs equally horribly on all platforms. I would say that I have "less" issues on the M1 Max but I don't think it has anything to do with the machine itself other than it's more powerful than the others so can handle it.
