mouse dragging

For the last couple of days (since updating my iMac to Big Sur), my mouse has been dragging/laging. It's very frustrating when trying to work. Can anyone tell me what I can do to make this stop?

Mouse hover stops Is anyone else having an issue where when you hover over something nothing happens? But then then once you restart the imac its all fine again? Its happened to me twice in 2 days. Just wondering as I just got a new mouse, wouldn't want it to be faulty. I am on Big Sur 11.5.2

My magic mouse2 has begun to scroll in a jerky fashion instead of the smooth fashion previously. What can I do? iMac 2019 Running Mojave. By jerky I mean there is a 1 second pause after I click on an object and move the mouse. I have tried various surfaces and a Magic mouse 1 with the same results. I have reviewed the forum but none of the suggestions help.

Slow (jerky mouse, delayed mouse clicks) Mac - Big Sur I downloaded EtreCheck, and pasted the result in PasteBin "Slow MAC Big SUR" EtreCheck didn't find any major problem, and yet, the behavior continues.
