I saw the issue come back on my new mac mini sadly after more use. Upgraded to 4.7.9 and it was there again too. I keep MWB running but I turn off Malware Protection so at least periodic scanning happens. No performance issues while scanning. Just seems to be however the real time protection engine is running for me.

I am running 4.7.8 since I checked off beta releases till the native M1 version is official. Happy to use it with 11.2 when that is out. I do have one bit of info to add. So I had to swap my Mac mini with apple due to screen glitching issues. I started to get purple boxes on the screen on the login page and when changing full screen apps. I got that swap done yesterday and so far on my first day of testing it I haven’t seen the same performance issue. I’m wondering if apple had issues with early production models. All guesses on my part of course. But the new one I just got doesn’t have any network traffic issues so far.

I do. That is why I was saying that anytime there was network traffic the performance went down significantly.

Hi. I have the new Mac Mini with the M1. Running MB Premium 4.6.12 via Rosetta 2. MB was one of the first things I put on the machine when I got it. I noticed that when doing large network transfers, Chrome and other internet using apps would slow to a crawl. Become unresponsive. It was very odd. Spoke to Apple about it and did a reformat of the whole system. Didn't install MB this time and ran perfectly for a week till today when I installed 4.6.12 and right away Chrome started to do the same thing anytime I have a network drive mounted with data being copied OR Time Machine starts up in the background. I turned on BETA updates in hope that there was something newer being tested but sadly no. Anyways, just wanted to inform you and I hope there is a native M1 version BETA soon. Thanks.
