Endpoint software is a blight. My company's M2 pro should have flown through the things i subject it to. But simple things like linting on many files is slower than my 8y old pc on a sata-SSD.

Often the software itself is fine but it makes it possible for the IT department to configure performance killing behaviours. SHA hash every file you open, execute specific actions if the a opened file or process matches specific heuristics, log everything.
