Not using Houdini much these days but was about to buy a license again and remembered the glitches on Apple Silicon last time I tried it so just asking here about the current status. Can't seem to find all info gathered in one place.
I do oc know the Karma XPU doesn't use metal and that the Vulkan viewport is not available but I am curious mostly on the overall usability. I used to have a lot of issues with network views getting laggy after a while, camera getting weird etc that made the whole experience quite bad compared to how it used to be in the pre AS era where stuff at least worked as far as I remember. Not pointing fingers here, just curious on if it is viable or more a case of "yeah, if you are a diehard apple fan with no other options, it's better than nothing"

Just tried apprentice a little and come across these glitches but it could oc be my system as well. (M3 MAX, maxxed to the max, Sonoma 14.4.1)

Sluggish viewport is not new on MacOS Silicon, many people have submitted RFE and we have no news for months

Ok thanks, I will try apprentice a little more to see if I can provoke these issues consistently or if there was a one time thing.
