I have no idea why this is happening (our MacOS expert is AWOL for a number of years, and the app thing might be broken). After the installation, the startup times are few seconds. You can certainly just install the terminal version sage-8.9-OSX_10.14.6-x86_64.tar.bz2 and run it in terminal; to open notebooks one can start it as sage -n HTH > 2.
