Is there any update on this? This would be a great QOL improvement. Seems easy to implement.

The team reports the Beta, starting with 29.7.0.88, should have a fix for this.
This particular build introduces a lot of WIP snapping-related changes, so if your work depends on this, be mindful of it. However, before this fix gets pushed into general build, having the confirmation it actually works would be great — so please check it, if possible, and comment back.

I have the same issue with 29.6.1.
This is a big issue. In my case, it seemed to have correlated with 29.6.1 update.
Can we get advice on which version to downgrade to and an ETA for the solve? -

Adobe Illustrator's Multithreading Journey Begins!
Dear Illustrator Community,
I'm thrilled to announce that we've embarked on an exciting journey to bring multithreading capabilities to Adobe Illustrator. This significant undertaking will enhance performance and responsiveness across various aspects of the application.
While this is a complex process that will take some time to fully implement, I wanted to share our progress so far.
Our Approach
We've strategically begun by focusing on the most computationally intensive operations—those that typically take more time and block the main thread, resulting in slower response times while you work. By moving these operations to separate threads, we aim to significantly improve your overall experience with Illustrator.
It's important to note that you may see more noticeable impact in some areas than others initially. However, we want to assure you that this is just the beginning, and we will continue this journey to bring improvements across…

@ Avinash, How can I DM you a file and screen recording?

Give me a couple of days to get a good example along with better details. I can provide a simplified file at that point.

Concerning the type engine, I recently noticed the alert when editing text on older files (v27): "This text was created in a different version of Illustrator. Editing the text may cause some changes to your text layout. Basic formatting will not be affected. Do you want to continue?"
May be nothing, just hadn't been seeing it until recently but then again, these files are from a variety of outside sources.
My files are mainly text with very few points.

It happened on MacOS 15.4 as well.
And the previous Illustrator release.
Files are under 10MB. Current file I'm working with is 6.1MB.
Files do not have many points. They are text based labels so they are mostly text blocks on basic rectangles.
Nothing / no action directly causes the slowdown. It simply arises over use.Did Illustrator recently make an update to the type engine?

Many actions I used prompt "OK/Cancel" dialog windows. Obviously, if I both made and ran the action, my response would logically be: OK or yes. I want the action panel to allow for recording inputs or allow an option to select and input.

This is a different issue than the Smart Guides one.
Using the Scale tool (s) if you hold shift and scale, you need to stay close to a 45 degree path when dragging in order to keep the proportions locked. Illustrator EASILY unlocks the proportionate scaling when the users deviates a small amount from 45 degrees. It's very easy to do as a user and the amounts can be small depending on the degree the user moves. So it's very very easy to accidentally scale something to almost proportional size such as w:100% h: 92% while the SHIFT key is being held.
I wish holding SHIFT would simple lock proportions regardless of the angle I choose to drag. If I wanted freeform then I should be able to release SHIFT or not use at all.
