I use the import feature from exported sites in my support job so I can load locally for testing and troubleshooting. On one import, I realized I had the wrong zip file and began clicking cancel to halt the process. I delighted the site instance and made sure the folder was gone from Local Sites.
Since then, Local still works, but it starts super slow and going from screen to screen is super slow as well. I suspect there are some files still lingering from that botched import (which was my fault).
In past tickets, I was told where to delete some Local system files to solve an issue, but I cannot recall where they were. Is that the solution here? And if so, can you kindly direct me on any system files I should clear out?
Local Version:

Operating System (OS) and OS version:
macOS Sequoia 15.5

Hi @gscoolidge! There was actually a recent issue with our latest update where some MacOS users were experiencing extreme slowness after updating due to having the Intel version of Local running on their device instead of the Apple Silicon one. Could you check if that’s the case for you? You should be able to swap to the correct one to resolve this moving forward. More details here:
