Nope. My M1 MBP isn't seeing 12.3.1 either. It's enrolled in the Public Beta program, though - maybe that's a factor.

I'm not sure that it's necessarily accurate to say that there will "always" be memory leaks
Would anyone know if this makes it safe to upgrade an MBP with replaced motherboard?
I still have issues with Safari tabs gobbling up as much as 3GB each. Also Google Drive showing up as much as 70GB in Activity Monitor even when I have only 16GB of memory on my m1 iMac. If I force quit it, it drops memory usage down from like 14 to around 9GB. I know , that doesn't explain the 70GB , but.... If I use Brave Browser, I have none of the Safari issues.
My 2017 21.5" Intel Mac no longer need the BT keyboard plugged in. Yay! Never had a problem with the mouse, but the keyboard needed to be hard wired or it was useless. Finally…
Similar issues with my 2018 13"" Intel Macbook Pro with kernel_task taking over 700% of my CPU with 200 plus threads. Never had this issue before I installed macOS 12.3 but the problem remains even after updating to 12.3.1 Any ideas on what's causing this?
Thanks for this! Unfortunately, I'm still not able to figure out why kernel_task is hogging over 700 % CPU on my Macbook Pro. It seems like it's related to the update to macOS 12.3 as the problems started when I updated to it but I created another new user on my Macbook from scratch to play with on my Mac with no apps installed there apart from the basic Apple ones and there were no issues there. So it seems there's something wrong with the software on my MAcbook which is interacting in this manner but I haven't installed or updated anything major in the last week or so since when these problems startedSee here maybe it will be of help:

Updated. Wife's MBA 2020 M1 has finally waken up the attached LG monitor via USB-C. It was attach/detaching the USB-C just to wake up the LG from laptop sleep state.
This 12.3.1 has improved waking screens on M1 Mac mini dramatically (I do have the computer set not to sleep, just the screens) - used to flash on and off 2-3 times when the screens were waking up in earlier OS versions - and sometimes my 2nd screen an LG 27" IPS screen would go solid blue. Since installing 12.3.1 the screens waking up once, and haven't had the 2nd screen go blue.
On 2018 Mac mini it has improved screens waking from sleep as well, still flash once, but overall a better experience than before. (not quite as improved as the M1 Mac mini though)

Didn't you read the fine print? Every install of Apple Music comes with a lifetime subscription to "mess" at no additional charge.well, it didn't fix the mess called "Apple Music"

If I restart or boot the computer I have to make sure to disconnect the two TB Display screens… else the computer gets stuck forever at the white Apple logo boot sequence. It isn’t as horrible as the screens are daisy chained so only one cable for a few seconds then plug back until next reboot, but it raises eyebrows about what other bugs could be happening sneakily.
Besides that, this update has revived the performance for me. It has regained some of the snappiness specially when manipulating windows, desktops switches, Mission Control, etc… macOS 12 was frustratingly messy on this front for me.
I had to re-install Monterey at the beginning of the year (hard drive failure). From that moment on, I had two fairly annoying bugs that survived multiple OS updates but this release finally fixed:
- I would be pestered over and over to allow the OS and many apps to use my location every time I rebooted.
- My desktop icon thumbnails stopped rendering.
Universal Control on my MacBook Pro M1 Max with MacOS 12.3 was working great with my iPad using the latest beta, iPadOS 15.5. But after upgrading my MacBook Pro M1 Max to MacOS 12.3.1 Universal Control no longer works at all. Disappointed. Has anyone found a workaround?
I think the only "workaround" is to install macOS 12.4 beta too - it states in the iPadOS 15.5 beta release notes that Universal Control isn't compatible with iPadOS 15.4 / macOS 12.3:
Universal Control
Known Issues
- Universal Control in this release isn’t compatible with macOS 12.3 and iOS 15.4.
Workaround: Use Universal Control between macOS 12.4 beta and iOS 15.5. (91136128)
Thank you. I wish I had read that before I updated my iPad. So I guess I'll just wait for the next update and hope it comes back.
I was having the problem of my Thunderbolt Display not waking up on my 2013 Mac Pro 6.1. I would have to unplug the display from the power bar (since the monitor has no on/off switch) then plug it back in. All seems to have been resolved with the 12.3.1 update... and I thought it was a hardware problem... silly boy.
Kernel task running at absurdly high percentages usually indicates that the SMC has lost contact with a thermal sensor. Kernel task does this as a failsafe measure to prevent further overheating. Are your fans also running at full speed? That's about as far as my knowledge goes but I an certain that other, brainier users, can take this idea and run with it (or discredit it).
