macOS Catalina keeps verifying xcode at startup

Hello,

since I have installed macOS Catalina, every startup is extremely slow since it keeps verifying apps it has already verified (such as xcode).

Any idea on why this may be happening?

Thanks

Here is the temporary fix:

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250731084

"To turn of SIP, first you have to start your mac in recovery mode.

Then open the terminal and type

csrutil status

And if it confirms you that SIP is currently enabled on your system enter the command

csrutil disable

Restart and check if the problem persists.

Please do not forget to reenable SIP after apple has solved this issue in the next operation system update (hopefully) :)"
