Wondering if this is related: In MacOS Ventura navigating around settings has become VISIBLY slow. Seconds can pass between clicking a settings option and its contents being rendered. Kind of fascinating that it got released like this at Apple.
That said it's only slow to load, it does not freeze or stutter. I guess that's still an upside to what it would've looked like under Windows or Linux.
- stephc_int13 4y agoWith modern displays being able to refresh at 144-350Hz we could expect modern UI to feel smoother and smoother over time. GPU is not a bottleneck. CPU should not be a bottleneck. Then why?

- bzzzt 4y agoSeems the setting screens are loaded on-demand, maybe using some plug-in architecture that results in overhead. Also, some panels require network communication which makes them even slower. But even then, I agree there's no excuse.
- philo23 4y agoSome parts of the panes are also webviews too, which definitely doesn't help. From memory you can go in and inspect them from the Safari web inspector.
- galad87 4y agoEach settings panel is run in a separate xpc process, that is launched on demand. So the UI is rendered out of process too. Open Activity Monitor and see how many processes are run when navigating around in System Settings.
