System Lag with Steam Open (Sequoia 15.2, M2)

[MisutaaAsriel]

Anyone else on Apple Silicon noticing lag on Sequoia when Steam is running? It's like the whole OS' framerate halves. I tried disabling GPU & HW video acceleration in Steam, hoping this would fix the lag by freeing up resources, but it didn't.

When I say framerate halves, accessing mission control and many system animations go from fast and fluid to noticeably choppy. It actively hitches.

Using a MacBook Air M2 with 24GB RAM, and the only other application running is Safari.
