How so?
Been using Safari to web build, drop box, we transfer, surf, not seen any issues on my 14’ MBP os12.1.
Thank you. Everyone that I've seen post about their experience in 12.1 says Promotion was working but still had stutters. Nobody said it was perfect and that it didn't need further optimizing. There's no need to make up narratives in here. We all want the same thing. Regardless, glad to see they optimized it further in 12.2
Haha. Not watching activity monitor all day and im glad you are not having this issue but when WindowServer takes up that much memory, the machine becomes unresponsive and only a restart will temporarily fix it.

Its enabled on 12.1 and 12.2; its just way more optimized in 12.2 and now runs perfectly like the iphone/ipad.
Time Machine works fine on my M1 mini. What about it isn't working?
For older versions, yes. I can literally watch via Stats (an open source version of iStat) as Safari 15.1's memory usage goes up moving total RAM usage going from 45% total to 80% (time to quit and restart Safari) and this is happening on Catalina.
(That is as high as my late 2013 iMac can go)Here is a picture of what it looks like when I reopen Safari with the exact same tabs before doing the quit-restart; note the cliff due to the memory that was "trapped" by the leak being let go (total usage was around 75%):

Yeah, I'm talking about the people who would go to every thread saying "this is how it's supposed to be" when it clearly had issues
AppleInsider has reported that they are rebuilding Apple Music to use AppKit, instead of WebViews on 12.2. Something similar to that of the Apple TV app, which should increase performance, responsiveness, and efficiency.
Thank god. Even with the M1, the mac Music app has felt sluggish.

Thanks. Most curious to see if there is any difference in the music app.
does anyone know if this build fixes the `cmd + tap` not registering on 14" MBP? As of the RC2 build I'm still having to tap 3 times for a link to open in the background. Several reports from people like this especially on the 14" MBP.
The search seems to be finally working! There are also some changes in the animations (things are sliding from the side, when opening a new pane).
Some of the issues I have come across so far is music not playing if you double click on the row (you have to specifically press the play button), the header in playlists does not stick to the top of the screen, there’s also problems with the back button when browsing the content.
I guess none of it is a big deal. They have time to fix it and the backend improvements will, hopefully, bring the difference we are waiting for. Even if not everything is ready for the 12.2 release, moving to native components should give much more flexibility in future for implementing new features and ensuring better stability (or at least I hope so).
One thing I'm curious about is if they've finally fixed queueing when listening to a radio station. If you right click and say "Play Next", it doesn't play it next if you're listening to a radio station.
This is unlike on iOS where it correctly plays that track next, then resumes with the radio station.
I use my MacBook for audio and video production, so yes, it is big deal when you connect your Mac to a screen 9 meter by 4 meters for an event, and people see a random orange dot on the corner.
