Long Time to Wake

Why does my Mac (the 5K model running OS 10.14) take 15 seconds to wake from the sleep mode? It never used to be this long but lately it has become this sluggish.

Time since boot: About 56 days

Does the wake from sleep time do better if you reboot?


Suggest removing Intego. Long time forum volunteers have found anti-virus packages and Mac cleaners cause more problems for Macs then they solve. Plus they can interfere with macOS normal operations. macOS does include it own XProtect that gets updated nightly to protect your Mac.
