I’m seeing some serious performance regressions - I don’t know if it’s the new images or Xcode 26.1 but for example a build for testing job that previously took 2m50s now taking 4m30s. This seems consistent across our entire pipeline resulting in them taking around 40-50% longer.

@sean Any news about Xcode `26.1.1`?
