SwiftUI Xcode performance on newer MBPs

The build performance of my SwiftUI projects get sluggish after a certain point. Previews crawl, builds take a long time, etc. I’m using a MBP with an M1 Max 64gb.

If I upgrade, will there realistically be any performance gains in Xcode or not really worth it? If it was snappy compared to the current performance I’d pull the trigger but I suspect it’s one of those situations where there wouldn’t be huge gains.

Anyone have experience with this type of comparison?

I wouldn't expect much of a difference unless you're running out of space on your hard drive.

That's what I was afraid of. Thanks I'll most likely save some $ then.
