Now you are being preposterous. Why would Apple ruin its reputation? Doesn‘t make sense at all

M1 Pro getting slow after a workload

Yeah, I know what you mean. I have a M1 MAX. Works great for Final Cut Pro but can't run Minecraft at max graphics without also only running at 15fps. A little disappointed with the GPU performance.
is it very good on rhino,sketchup etc.? Because my M1 Pro is laggy on rendered view in Rhino 7
No it's not slowing down it's perfectly usable sometimes it has to do some swap but that's about it, still got 2GB left. It does slow down after sleeping though
The memory pressure graph is a clue that this system is experiencing memory capacity issues. https://support.apple.com/guide/act...ac-needs-more-ram-actmntr34865/10.14/mac/12.0
I don't need more than 16GB if my Electron apps weren't eating all my RAM. However I still have 2GB free so for now it's fine! I don't need the 32GB for my type of workload as it's quite doable with 16GB, I don't get more than 1GB a day of swap so it's fine.
Prove that it would ruin their reputation. Apple fans are incredibly stubborn and would refuse to switch to Windows under any circumstances. The battery-gate incident is proof. If any PC component manufacturer pulled something like that, they would've gone out of business due to boycotts. Apple fans should be put Apple under a fire and boycotted them. Instead, Apple fans continued to buy iPhones, giving Apple no incentive to change their ways.
Apple knows this and is doing what any profit-maximizing entity would do when it has an incredibly loyal customer base - Abuse them as much as possible.
Even their trashy Magic Mouse gets high ratings from Apple fanatics. That's all the proof any reasonable person needs to know that Apple fans are willing to put up with more crap than PC users do.
Just look at this thread.
So many people suffering from terrible performance despite the "superior" performance of the M1 chip being the main selling point of the new Macs, yet no one is saying they're moving back to Windows.
Windows hasn't had an issue like this in forever. In fact, Microsoft and PC component manufacturer are being put under the fire by their customers for even the slightest problem, which is why Windows PCs are mostly problem-free and high-quality.
You keep going back to Apple after they keep abusing you and Apple will never change their way. Hold Apple accountable. Stop buying their products.

I don't think Minecraft is a good benchmark to use here. Last time I played the Java version was when the GTX 1080 was the best you could get, and I could not max it out in either Mac with the BEST hardware or Windows WITHOUT Optifine. This is why I play the Windows 10 version from now on as it actually performs well.
1. Upgrade to 32GB of ram (that would help a lot)
2. Wait for Apple to fix the memory leak
3. Reboot your machine every day
4. Keep an eye on Activity Monitor and kill processes that use too much ram.
Exchanging your laptop for an other 16GB won't change anything.
Not quite the issue OP has, but I have also noticed a decrease in graphics performance on my M1 Max. This happens (sometimes!) if the machine was in sleep for an extended period of time.
To give an example: I can play Dirt 4 with an average framerate of 68fps with almost maxed out settings and 3000x2000 resolution. When the MacBook Pro was in sleep before playing the game, I sometimes can only get around 10fps. If I reboot, the issue is gone and everything is working normally.

Rendered view has always been laggy on the Mac. But as I mentioned previously rhino isn't optimised for M chips.
it runs better on my intel MBP and far better on my PC....
Rhino 8 will be much better I imagine.
I think C4D is the only native M 3D app. Happy to be corrected.
Trolls like you are always so funny to me.
Oh, the M1 beats that easily. Question is: what metric are we talking about?
Plus: your 1500 bucks laptop runs: Windows.
5. Remove cleanmymac.
If all you do is playing game and discord you don't need more than 16GB.
LMFAO...
The M1 Mac can't even browse 4chan with the Christmas snowing theme smoothly. It's horribly stutter and lags like a 10-year-old android phone.
I have an i5-8400 with GTX 1050 ti running at 144 hz and it's unbelievably smooth.
The M1 is equivalent to i3-3220 with GTX 630.
