Sorry if this has been discussed before but I could not find it.

Yesterday I played around with LC 9.6.8 RC2 and 10.0.0 RC4 and wanted to see 
what difference the new Universal build does for speed.

After some testing I finally read the release notes and it states:
Note: Apple architecture support is currently experimental. To run the IDE 
using Apple architecture (on supported machines), you must toggle the Open 
using Rosetta option to off in the LiveCode.app bundle's Get Info pane in 
Finder. To build a standalone with native Apple architecture support you must 
explicitly choose the macOS Apple option in standalone settings.

For me the "Rosetta" box was not checked out of the box but LC ran in Rosetta 
mode.
Which means by default in the "Get Info" for the app "Use Rosetta" is unchecked 
but LC runs using Rosetta. You have to check "using Rosetta" and then right 
away uncheck "using Rosetta"
>From then on LC uses arm64.

I noticed some nice speed increase across all aspects of using LC: what used to 
take 10 seconds now takes 6.5 seconds. That is not bad for checking a box.

Kind regards
Bernd
