Glade extremely slow on Mac OS

macOS Big Sur 11.5
glade: stable 3.38.2
I encountered some lag problems when using glade, which is similar to this problem (Glade renders extremely slow on Mac OS)[https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glade/-/issues/442], and I try to run gtk3-widget-factory is also very slow.

Yes, it’s a known problem with GTK3 on Big Sur, see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/3714. Eventually a solution will arrive, but for the time being you can try using a VM or Cambalache (which is really new)

Note: it’s extremely unlikely GTK3 will ever be fixed on macOS. The only known fix is to change the rendering pipeline, and that’s done in GTK4.
