What does that mean?
Probably not related but lets clean this up.
You mean 100GB Disk Cache? That is *NOT* "reserved for Pro Tools to use", it's just a disk cache, it might be taking away memory Pro Tools or other apps could better use.
You have a 128GB system?
How large are your sessions?
I would be setting disk cache to cache typical sessions I am working on. Look at the disk cache meter and try to get it so sessions loaded fully cache (turn green). You can also just set to "normal" to see if that makes a significant change.
The macOS Activity Monitor memory pressure chart at the bottom of the memory page is a good indication of memory issues on the machine. What is it showing? Hopefully it's all green. But just worth checking just in case -- might be perfectly OK but I would not just wind up the disk cache to 100GB on a new system without looking at that.

Beyond that you should do careful standard troubleshooting, looking for plugins etc. that might be causing problems.
