Animate cc 2023 latest version 23.0.2 is extremly laggy on Mac M2 Pro

The software is very slow and laggy on my new Mac M2 Pro. There's a half-second delay with my stroke and eraser, or when I rotate/drag the canvas, or redo/undo a stroke (the error "animate is processing strokes please wait" appears regularly),etc.

Got the Same version on PC and never had that issue. How do I fix it?

EDIT: I found a temporary solution for this: Pull the canvas out of the workspace and make it a separate window. It now runs perfectly smooth and even the playback can play in real time with little to no framerate drop!

Unfortunately the current versions of animate struggle to keep up with high resolution of the MacBook displays- try doing it with a smaller window size (not full screen) and see if it's better. Apparently there's a new version of Animate coming out that has much better performance but nobody knows when that will actually release.
