I have to do 8 Channel 48khz pcm upsampling to stereo DSD256 to roughly use 20% cpu performance of 2 cores (out of 10). While running screen sharing trough Splashtop .
that means processing speed of 5.x in roon with the cpu probably throttling its performance.
(m4 base Mac mini) Mac OS27 could be amazing if intel finally gets abandoned for good.
Roon Suggested disabling automatic updates as one option. However, I canāt find any option to do so in room settings. How does one disable automatic updates?
Go to 
> About and click the by your Roon Server, then choose the āAskā optionā¦
You should do the same for your Roon Remotes as well, I think.
I just wanted to say thanks for posting about this. Although I donāt use my 2012 Mac mini that much for Roon anymore as my sonictransporter is my server now I do have it on my mac mini and occ use it to load convolution files, hires downloads, some word processing etc, but once upon a time it did function as my roon serverā¦regardless it has been stuck on a very old version of macOS for a long time. I followed the instructions on the legacy patching software that you posted and it worked like a charm and now I am on Sequoia and it works flawlessly. For folks with an old mac who wants new OS, def check it out! Freeware too!!
Thatās great, Iām happy that it was not too big a hassle 
Apple ends support this year for its last Intel Macs (2020 MBP). Itās all Apple Silicon from here on.
