macOS Sierra 10.12.4 Update Problem (extremely slow)
I regularly update my MacBook Pro. I usually don't abuse my laptop. There is enough RAM and space. There is no overhead on the CPU. I've checked that in the activity monitor. Today I installed the following updates:
1- macOS Sierra 10.12.4 update.
2- Command Line Tools (macOS Sierra version 10.12) for Xcode.
After these updates, my laptop is a mess.
My laptop runs extremely slow. Every time I click on an icon or open an app, the spinning wheel starts and takes up to half minute. Restarting the laptop is a nightmare. I have to wait up to 6 minutes for the laptop to operates. I've done the following with no hope:
1- Repair the disk (i.e. First Aid).
2- Reset SMC & NVRAM.
3- Checked the CPU (i.e. no overhead).
4- Checked Memory (i.e. shows Green color).
5- Regularly clean junk files via Dr. Cleaner app plus the optimization.
6- In Display, reduce motion and increase contrast and Reduce transparency. (6- Note: I've noticed a better performance but still slow).
