    WSL2 slow performance


    Hey guys,

    I just came over from the dark side (Mac) after a few years and I thought that WSL2 should be a lot faster but it's still performing slow. I.e. committing to git takes 3-4 seconds. Building a React App takes ~60 seconds (~50% longer than on my Mac).

    Is that normal or are there any tweaks? I don't seem any Hyper-V settings in my feature set. Could that be a reason?
