MacBook Pro slow to wake when opening lid

I have a 2018 MacBook Pro 13". No issues with it until the last month or so when, intermittantly, when opening the lid, there's a long delay until it wakes up. Hitting keys, touchbar, etc., doesn't help. I just have to wait.


That I'm aware nothing has been installed recently that could be behind it, or anything particularly changed, other than installing recent MacOS updates (I'm on 11.2.3).


Does anybody have any suggestions?
