Slow Performance

Hi guys,

I have a macbook pro 2016, retina display. Since I have updated to Big Sur my mac is nothing but a 1885 pc. Very Slow, buggy, it keeps crashing all the time, it takes me 5 minutes to turn up or down volume, open an app or safari or almost anything, do you guys have the same issue? Can I downgrade? I don't have a backup...

Any ideas or suggestions? I have at least 60 Gb free space on my HDD so its not that.

PS. my mac really give me the feeling of working with windows 8 on a core dou cpu

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.0

Download and run Etrecheck. Etrecheck is a diagnostic tool that was developed by one of the most respected users here in the ASC and recommended by Apple Support to provide a snapshot of the system and help identify the more obvious culprits that can adversely affect a Mac's performance.

Copy the report

and use the Additional Text button to include the report in your reply.

IMPORTANT:

Before running Etrecheck assign Full Disk Access to Etrecheck in the Etrecheck's Privacy preference pane so that it can get additional information from the Console and log files for the report:

Also click and read the About info to further permit full disk access.

Then we can examine the report and see if we can determine what might be causing the problem.
