Default This is why I don't mix on Laptops/Native
Pro Tools Ultimate, HDX, UAD Octo PCI.

100 tracks of a live rock band, real drums, guitars, keys, massed vocals, etc... A decent amount of plugs and verbs, and my 11 year old Mac Pro 5,1 isn't even breaking a sweat while mixing.

Check out that CPU usage in the screenshot.

When Avid gets it together with Monterey, I'll see how my M1 Pro MBP compares.
