My machine was extremely slow for a couple of hours, and friends on slack almost all reported serious issues. However, most of us assumed it was an issue in Big Sur RC as we are all running the beta. It was annoying, but we got around it by redirecting the Apple gatekeeper server to 0.0.0.0 in /etc/hosts/ Once the problem cleared up, I we removed the entry and all was back to normal. I didn't note the name of the specific server. -- ...but the senator, while insisting he was not intoxicated, could not explain his nudity.
