I mean your M3 Max has a 3-5x bigger GPU than OPs base M3, you'd certainly hope it could rip through those new shaders.

The shaders are nothing. I’m kind of appalled by everybody telling “oh shaders, it’s expensive!”

OP probably has been hit by the electron bug, which does indeed kill the performance of the whole OS…

I haven’t noticed any performance issues on my M3 Air, other than the Ghostty / Zed scrolling lag issues that were fixed in a software update.
