I've got a 12700k desktop with windows and an M1 macbook (not pro!) and my pandas notebooks run noticeably faster on the mac unless I'm able to max out all cores on the Intel chip (this is after, ahem, fixing the idiotic scheduler which would put the background python on E-cores.)
I couldn't believe it.
