Using Xcode 15.0.1
The playground, for the code below, has been in "Launching ok" for over two minutes. Anything that I should look into? A little mind boggling actually.
import UIKit
var msg = "Hello World"
print ("\(msg)")
Why is Playground taking so long of just three lines of code?
Because it has to start up an iOS simulator to run your code. If you want playground to start promptly, it’s better to start from one of the macOS templates.

Just to close this thread out: I was booting off of an external SSD drive. The drive itself was slow, so that was this issue.
