As the title says. I've been using macOS 15 and parallels 20 and I've begun noticing a significant delay after editing the text, making/editing a note, viewing the wordlist, and other actions. Meaning, the app will essentially freeze or hang for several seconds (no hourglass or other indicator) before I can resume work in the text (including scrolling). I don't notice this on other windows apps, though to be fair, PT is basically the only windows app I use. I've only noticed this delay since updating to macOS 15. The parallels 20.1.1 update today didn't resolve anything. Everything is up to date on the windows vm, including Paratext. The Mac is plenty fast enough to do what's needed (m3pro, 36gb memory, 1tb storage). IS anyone else experiencing this?

If it's really bad you could try the native arm64 build of "Paratext Lite" (Basically the Android versions running on macOS)

macos share

(since you have a m3 device you'd want the ParatextLiteInstaller_arm64.pkg package)

The solution was to turn off 'show all chapters'. That dramatically improved app response time.
