Final Cut Pro Slow After Upgrading to BigSur 2020 iMac 5K 128GB RAM 16GB Graphics
Hello, I hope your day finds you well.
I recently purchased a new iMac 5K 2020 with 16BG graphics and I upgraded the RAM to 128GB!
It is upgraded tp BigSur and runs SUPER SMOOTH except for FCPX.
I've noticed that sharing is so much faster however creating new Libraries and even Projects takes a while. Even producing a rainbow bouncy ball (on FCPX only, the rest of the computer works perfect even during the FC lags). I never had such wait times on my MacBook Pro. Seriously, even things like adding marker slows FCP and creates a beachball. Eventually the tasks get done but they take a while.
Something like adding a marker was INSTANT on my MBP running Catalina. The tested moving an element across the screen, also lags and produces a beachball. Activity monitor doesn't seem to be effected at all by this... This is very concerning.
Thank you for your time and responses.
P.S. For any creators:
BigSur and Photoshop are NOT friends lol
