When using Xcode's Preview or Simulator, I noticed that my M2 Air will overheat. This hasn't happened before in Ventura or Xcode 14.

Same on my M1 Max, I noticed this during the beta but figured they would fix it. I guess not...

I’m using Xcode 16 on an M1 Pro and experiencing overheating issues. It seems like Apple rushed the release without addressing glitches that cause the laptop to overheat, which can directly affect battery life, decreasing its performance and, in turn, lowering the value of the Mac. I really dislike this from Apple. We pay a lot for their products, and issues like these devalue them.
