Illustrator 25.0 slow and laggy
Since upgrade things very slow. Also cannot move objects in small, precise moves.

My Illustrator v25.4 is also slow to open or close files. And so slow to edit objects as to be useless. Every click causes a "(Not responding...)" in the title bar. This occurs for all drawings created in previous versions, to varying degrees. New drawings created with v25.4 operate properly. Content copy&pasted from old files to a v25.4 new blank file work properly. But it is impractical to do this for every previous drawing. Disabling "Real time editing" helped some. My AI scratch folder is on 2nd drive. I reinstalled v24.3, it works at full speed on any file I open. GPU feature is enabled in both versions, Real time editing is enabled in v24.3. All files are on the local machine. AI does not report any errors or incompatibilities. I was on autoupdate so I don't know exactly in which version the problem started. Other than opening or closing a file can Antivirus slow down operations? I'm really stumped. My machine is an HP Xeon workstation with 64 GB ram, two SSDs, Nvidia P5000. I will have to use v24.3 until an update makes the problem go away.
