Sorry if this is trivial, im used to windows that after any major updates I run a cleaning software for the registry, temp files etc. Is there anything you guys do with you Macs after a big update like this? Update went smoothly enough, no issues so far.

After an update I like to run the Geekbench 5 app. I keep a note inside my Mactracker app with a historical record of my Geekbench scores going way back. This gives me a pretty good idea that my system is still performing consistently over time.

The one time is wasn't was when I installed a new HDD on an iMac and the system throttled way down and the fans went crazy. It turns out that was a known issue (but unbeknownst to me) with putting in a different HDD into the iMac architecture.

I do intend to do that, I usually wait a bit after to let the system sort itself out

I usually restart a time or two.

funny enough, for the first time, my Geekbench 5 multi score broke 9000 on my m2 air. New best for me!
