Xcode 15 Overheating M2

When using Xcode's Preview or Simulator, I noticed that my M2 Air will overheat. This hasn't happened before in Ventura or Xcode 14.

Same experience on my M2 Max

Me too. MacBook Air, M1.

Using a Simulator running iOS 16.4, seems to fix the issue on my MacBook Air M1.

Still experiencing the overheat issue on m2 Air with the Xcode 15 Appstore release.

Are they not testing it before release? It's nuts. Now I need to downgrade my whole OS because of course Xcode 14 doesn't even work on Sonoma

Same issue here, Macbook Pro M2 Pro

Same issue here, Macbook Pro M2 Pro 16 inch

Experiencing the same. Macbook Air M1

Same issue Air M2

Same issue with my MacBook Air M1, it was fine with Mac OS Ventura and Xcode 15, but as soon I upgraded to Mac OS Sonomai started facing the issue. The system is pretty much unusable as soon I launch the simulator, using an Android emulator for now until they fix this in the next update. If anyone knows any fix please mention.

Same for me

Same here. MacBook Air M1.

Same on my new M2 Macbook Air 13". The bottom middle of the laptop gets very hot and the battery starts draining very quickly.

When will Apple release a fix for this issue.?? The only workaround is to change the simulator to iOS 16.4. Even after that for the first few seconds of running the simulator weird activities shoot the CPU up in Activity manager...

Same problem here. MacBook Air M2 16 GB. There's a significant difference in RAM pressure emulating iOS 17 too, compared to 16.4.
