The past week Final Cut Pro has significantly slowed down during exporting. It took almost three hours to export a 3:34 1080p 60fps .mov. None of the other performances has been affected; Photoshop, Lightroom, illustrator, and even during the editing using FCPX is performing as usual. Just exporting has slowed.
Any help is much appreciated!
Here is my EtreCheck report:
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.3
Several bad things that stand out:
you have Chrome, which is a known enemy of video applications
for why this is and how to remove Chrome and its evil keystone agents and daemons
You have the creepy “cleanmymac”. Most of us here consider it malware. It has been known to cripple systems to the point where a clean install was necessary
It may not be able to do as much damage in Big Sur and Monterey but still something that should not be used
Your system drive is starting to run low on free space. It should still be ok but may be partly a cause of slowdowns.

FCPX Is Exporting EXTREMELY slow.
