Teams is KILLING my Mac Every Day
I have a hard time believing I'm the first person to post this after not finding anything in the forum. I wouldn't doubt if Microsoft is deleting them because they can't figure out how to fix this i...
Hi everyone, we're pleased to announce Microsoft Teams for Apple Silicon, which on the M1/M2 ARM builds, will have significantly faster performance than what's seen during the Rosetta emulation today! Here's our official roadmap ID for this release; Microsoft 365 Roadmap | Microsoft 365. More on this can be found here; Announcing Microsoft Teams optimized for Apple silicon - Microsoft Tech Community.
Users should see a significant performance boost with this release. And for the Intel Macs out there, we're still thinking about you! We have some large performance fixes coming that will help improve overall performance for the Intel version as well.
Thanks,
Sam Cosby, Teams Engineering PM
Same here.
My Mac is not perse very powerfull (but Intel Core i5 and 16GB of memory should be enough?!), but after we switched from calling/meeting using SfB (in island mode with Teams) to only Teams it seems every meeting with a shared screen (either mine or someone else's) my sound keeps breaking up (while sounds from other apps keep being okay). Also the presented screen starts flickering.
After starting Teams, I see like 9 different processes popping up of which 8 are called Microsoft Teams Helper and 5 of which have (helper) behind them).
What is causing Teams to take up resources? Amount of channels, Apps used in different channels etc?
Any useful pointers on settings I can adjust in MacOS 12.1 or MS Teams for Mac version 1.5.00.1912-E?
