I don't see it here. Fully loaded M1 Mac Mini with clean install of Big Sur 11.5.1 and PT 2021.6

Have you experienced the beachball at all with .6 or is this your first install? If .6 is running smoothly on M1 after all, it's a killer release.

Will try clean install of 11.5.1 + 2021.6 when I have some downtime, currently with 11.2.3, 2021.3.1 is the better option for me.

No beachballs here so far, but only one week worth of testing. Let me repeat myself, this is a clean install, not factory install.

Can you describe a bit more about your setup? Are you using many 3rd party plugins? If so, which ones are you using most often?

Are you mixing? Producing? Recording?

Are the tests you're running controlled / benchmark style tests, or are using this system in a daily work environment ?

So far this is testing with recording silence, but once I gain confidence will be for real. My sessions are mostly mixing, with only max half a dozen VI's -- and for that this 16GB memory limit seems to be just enough.

Only a week worth of testing so too early to say. But looks promising. Every 3rd party plugin you can think of basically. Only few bad ones found so far, most notoriously Sonnox Pro Codec which does not work as AAX, AU or Standalone.

Just to be clear before I wipe this mac mini and start from scratch, you have tried more than just the silence recording test right? You've done some mixing with 3rd party plugs and had no beach-balling?

Yes I have, but nothing serious. Only testing myself so far, nobody else coming to a session. No beachballing so far, most serious issue being Sonnox Pro Codec does not work.
