Hello I'm having the same problems with lag on the clone tool.
It basically seems to have a life of its own.
Is there a solution?
Thanks

Hi Jackie. Adobe Support are trying to put it down to MacOS 10.14 – even though system requirements state 10.14 is compatible. What version are you on?

I've now tested this issue on a MacBook Pro, running MacOS Big Sur 11.2.3 and the results are exactly the same – a two to three second lag after sampling before the overlay appears – so it's not down to a MacOS 1.14 issue.

I've been in contact with Adobe Support and gone through the suggested steps in Optimize Photoshop performance (https://adobe.ly/3nRZZyS) but nothing worked. The only workaround I've found is to install Photoshop 2020 alongside 2021 and use it when I need to use the Clone Stamp tool.
