Slow Roblox performance on Mac mini M4

So, I have a Mac mini M4, every time I enter Roblox it takes like 1 minute to load the Home Screen and when I enter the game it takes 1 HOUR (maybe) if it has many scripts etc... Game mode doesn't become active when I enter the Roblox App, so... idk what do to. If anyone can give me a response to this, I very grateful. I have also a MacBook m3 and it works PERFECTLY.

I can confirm issues with ROBLOX Studio on the MacBook Pro M2 (8GB RAM/512GB SSD/ MacOS 26) and a Mac Mini M4 (16GB RAM / 256GB SSD / MacOS 26). We just bought the M4 today for the Games Studio I’m part of to do MacOS testing and both perform equal or worse than an iPhone 14 Pro in the Player, but at least smoothly, and worse in Studio with a 60Hz refresh Rate reporting at 4K for the whole app, but closer to 45-48Hz when measuring with external tools.


This may be a performance regression in the most recent patches, but it is definitely inconvenient
