My work computer is an i9 with 64GB of RAM and it also runs like shit. It's really noticeable how bad performance is since I switched to Linux full time on my personal systems and have a frequent comparison point.

    Well, work machines have increasing counts of security agents. Mine has three and I’ve seen more. Plus Teams which uses enough RAM to run a proper OS all by itself.
