Hello! Since the new version, Bisq v1.10.0 is deadly slow to start on my MAC mini M1. Like an hour to start and to loop the steps (1/4, 2/4, 3/4 is particularly long and 4/4).

SPV and DAO sync was finish last night.

It used to be like less than 5 minutes with prior versions.

Help… please!

hi, are you using the aarch64 build or the amd64 under rosetta?

aarch64 aka ARM64. Not amd64 under rosetta… Rosetta is slow under ARM

can you please detail the report?  
is it literally “slow to start” but when it’s started it runs fine? so it’s just a once-time hassle?  
or is it actually slow all around during use?  
(consider bisq1 UI in general is not extremely responsive because of java implementation)  
is it slower than the previous version you were running with rosetta?
