Does anyone know why it is so excruciatingly slow? I always just switch to Windows to use Inkscape but it would be good to know the reason.

I think it has something to do with gtk3 under mac. This will probably be fixed with the gtk4 port.

Some has investigated the a slow gtk3 program on Mac and found the program was spending a second drawing shadows under 4 (I guess) buttons.

That's downright impressive!
