I've been seeing file transfers TO an SMB share taking 200% — 300% as long as pre-Ventura.
Got a tip for us?

While I'm glad they fixed the issue, I think this shows the drop in software quality that has plagued Apple for a while now.. also waiting **this** long for a fixed to such a critical feature is a no-no. Apple should have attempted a fix ASAP.
With all that said, yay?

Nice! Now I won't have to always hook up my Ventura MacBooks via Thunderbolt to do Target Disk Mode like I have for the past couple of months.
A better response is I will believe it is fixed when I see it works for longer than an hour
The keynote is over. They are preparing for WWDC 23. They need splash, not fundamentals.
This is true. A few years ago this would have really crippled me; today I didn't even notice it until this article because the majority of my data is on iCloud.
I would have a big savings account if Apple paid me by the hour even at minimum wage. People ask me, what do you do? I have two jobs, one of them is Apple technical support. They how cool is that. I work for free and at my expense!😎
I didn't know it's technically possible to downgrade? Is this blessed by Apple? Is it safe (especially in terms of potential firmware mismatches)? If so, how do you do this? Is it just erasing the entire drive, booting from macOS Recovery over the internet, then reinstall the oldest available OS supported by your hardware, then manually upgrade to the OS of one's choice, then restore/migrate user data from a Time Machine backup?
That's not how it works. QA's job is to find issues, not fix them.
Blaming QA for buggy software is a very real misunderstanding of how software engineering works.
Are you saying Apple engineers ignore QA reports too? Thought with public feedback they had enough to ignore already.
My policy is to update to the new OS when it gets to X.5 or X.6 That is why I am still on Monterey. Is the best way to have the best macOS stability and performance.
PS: I have an Intel Mac, if I would have an Apple silicon Mac I would have already updated to Ventura.
It's crap like this that proves that macOS is not a business-ready OS. There's absolutely no way that this would be allowed to be an issue for anywhere near this long in the Windows world.
The business world might not have issues with some of things being discussed. Also we still have at least 2 more beta cycles to iron out more issues mentioned if 13.3 hasn’t improved what your after.
