Mouse wheel scroll speed in layer panel extremely quick

Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.6.0 20260422.r.11 4804c18  x64 (final, Release)

System: Mac OS 15.7.3

In this version the scrolling speed in the layer panel has drastically increased so its not usable anymore to scroll with the mouse scrollwheel.

With a standard generic mouse using scroll wheel and moving it one step scrolls more or less 10 layers.
With such a big steps in scrolling using the scrollwheel becomes not possible. User is resorted to use the side scrollbar which results in a drastically more time spent doing this function that is done 1k times each day.

I have checked and nothing else on my system has increased speed so its local to Photoshop.
Can some validate if they have the same issue as me?

    Can you update Photoshop to the just released 27.8 and see if you still see the same issue?

    I ask because while it may be a bug in 27.6, unless it’s also present in the latest Photoshop version, Adobe most likely would not fix any bugs in older point releases of Photoshop.

    @Jeff Arola means the recent update 27.8. I got this update in Germany today in the morning. It may take a while for the update to become generally available in all countries.
