I've run into the import issue as well, it's especially painful if something imported is doing work using a slow library (e.g. a config module loading a HOCON config using pyhocon a.k.a slowasmolasseshocon)

That would not help. The reason proton works so well is because Linux on x86 and Windows on x86....are both on x86. Proton on ARM Mac's would involve Rosetta and while that does a surprisingly good job of running x86 on ARM I'm no
