Illustrator 27.3 Image Trace enhancements not good for my MacBook Pro.

[Roger B Greenwood]

I'm using 2018 MacBook Pro 15", Ventura 13.2.1. Until yesterday, Image Trace ran smoothly and quickly - but 27.3 has really slowed things up. Can I revert to older version? Can't afford new MBP right now!

You should be able to drop back to 27.2. There have been reports of problems with this update.
