On Ventura, when the arc browser is opened, a large amount of lag ensues that causes the screen to update about once every 3–4 seconds.
Arc browser here: arc.net

After going through the setup screen and picked a background color it became usable, I'm guessing this was due to the transparency of the background. I followed the guide in sickcodes/osx-optimizer to disable transparency, which made the background an opaque white however I belive that the computer may still have been processing the transparency in the background.

It's probably trying to use the GPU, I am trying Ventura right now though

I'm not sure if that would be applicable to Arc as the problem was in the setup process where it was trying to apply transparency, blur, and noise to the application's background. Once I was able to disable the transparency and blur, the application ran much faster.
