After Effects Scripting Thread Blocked

[James Whiffin]

Hi. I'm getting very long load times when launching AE 2020, 21, and 21 beta on OSX 11.4

When launching AE via Xcode, I can see an issue that is taking up a huge amount of time (up to a minute) for each launch:

Any ideas what's causing this? I deleted all my scripts as that was my first thought, but no dice. Thanks.

No idea the cause of this but using an older version of Xcode improved launch times (v11.7)
