14.1.1 Slower?

[slooksterPSV]

Running Sonoma 14.1.1 on MBP M1 16GB and it seems... slower. I'm thinking maybe spotlight indexing, but it takes a long time to load Outlook, Arc, Safari, About this Mac.

However, it could also be Virus Barrier or Spotlight Indexing. Memory used is sitting at 8GB with Arc, Outlook, and Messages open. CPU is now at 14% average.

I'm curious on others' thoughts or if they've hit any performance bottlenecks with the update so far.

I expect it's doing something in the background. I'm getting ~4% CPU usage with e-mail, Messages, Brave, and task monitor open.
