Any reason why Automator loops run progressively slowly after update to 11.2.3. Running a MacBook Pro 15" 2017.
Automator is now pretty useless, so any help appreciated.
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.2
Problem resolved. My original 'watch me do' process included a long period of inaction (63 seconds). I timed this delay, and added a PAUSE task in the script of 63s. This allowed the loops to continue at normal speed with no degradation.

I am running 11.2.3 and I use Automator often, but my workflows are usually short. Could you provide an example workflow that exhibits the problem? I would like to test.
Its a simple 'Watch Me Do" series of mouse clicks on a loop. Automating an application, on a loop n times. The first loop cycle plays back at normal recorded 'screen' speed, the second loop cycle is slower, the 3rd slower still, and so on ...
Great. Thanks for posting the solution.
Automator runs progessively slow on a loop after Big Sur update.
