Problem in Arduino 2.0 for MAC OS Version 2.0

Hello everyone, I tried to install the latest version 2.0 of arduino and it works very slow and it takes time to open the files. I use MAC OS 12.6 Monterey on a Macbook M1. I really like version 2.0 because of its changes, but for now I'll stick with 1.8, which works great. Is it possible to solve it or has someone had the same problem?

Hi @marcelrios. I'm sorry Arduino IDE 2.x did not work well for you.

Can you quantify this? For example, are we talking about a second to open a file, or a minute?

Is the problem specific to certain sketches, or does it happen even with a simple sketch like the one you open via File > Examples > 01.Basics > Blink in the Arduino IDE menus?

There is some known performance impact to the Arduino IDE currently only being available in x86-64 builds. These work even on the ARM architecture of the M1 courtesy of the Rosetta 2 software, but a native ARM build will have better performance. I'm happy to tell you that work is currently in progress to make it possible to build the IDE on the macOS ARM host:

This work will eventually allow Arduino to start distributing native ARM builds for macOS:
