Hi all,

Since upgrading to v13.0 a few weeks ago, my Homey Pro (Early 2023) feels slower:

1. Local backups (Homey USB Tool, recovery mode, USB-C to Mac) used to take about a couple of min before the upgrade. Now they take more than an hour. For comparison, a firmware update through the same tool takes only ~8 min.

2. The web app (my.homey.app) and the iOS app respond more slowly than before (opening the Devices tab, loading flows, toggling a device). Nothing else changed on my side (same MacBook Pro M1 (latest Mac version, latest Chrome version), cable, network, roughly the same apps/devices).

System looks healthy: no under-voltage or throttling recorded, ~61 °C, ~730 MB free RAM, load ~0.25.

Is anyone else seeing this since v13.0? Is a slower local backup expected with the new firmware?

Thanks!
