P: Sky Replacement tool Very Slow and unusable.

Woo Woo, Switching back to normal mode from Rosetta has cured the problem. I was running it in Rosetta mode to allow for Aurora HDR Plugin to show up in the menu.  Thanks for your help.

I have done as requested and done the activity monitor.  See the attached. https://www.dropbox.com/s/isk510s99psgvws/Sample%20of%20Adobe%20Photoshop%202022.txt?dl=0 

Seems to be working here for me.

Let me ask the Sky Replacement engineers what might help.

One other thing that might help us would be a process sample while the cursor is stuck spinning. Directions here: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/how-to-get-a-process-sample-or-spindump.html

There seems to be a temporary problem with dropbox.  I don't this my problem is specific to one JPEG as it does the same on different ones, but works OK on a RAW file?

Hmm, Sorry, that link gives me an error: 

So sorry, I pasted the wrong link.  Here was the image for the sky replacement.  I wanted a more dramatic sky in this.  https://www.dropbox.com/s/ku7ak3z2800d0vx/SM__7407-Edit%20copy.jpg?dl=0

Hmm. The image you provided has no sky in it. Were you trying to use this file as the sky? or were you trying to add a sky to this file?

Hi thanks for your reply.  Here is a link to the file that I was having trouble with.  It seems to be happening on all JPEG images, but RAW CR3 files seem to be ok.
