Hello, I have a MacBook Pro 16 intel i9 2.4 8core 64gbram os 12.5.1 with purely musical use with Logic Pro, lately and especially after the last update it has slowed down a lot both in turning on and opening applications and blocking some including system preferences, I have 1T SSD and I have at least 75% free, I can not figure out what is due to this slowdown along with various kernel panic, system suspension with fans at maximum (maybe use of logic and plugins with heat? ) and wifi connection via iPhone 13 hotspot became problematic with the start of the slowdown..I attach a snapshot of etrecheck hoping to get to the bottom of the problem, thank you, best regards

To trouble shoot further you can:
—Test issue in another user (or guest user) account Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac - Apple Support
This will tell you if it a universal issue or isolated to your user/admin account.
—SafeBoot How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support will sort many anomalies
Takes a bit longer to get to the login screen, does a quick disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, including dynamic loader cache, font cache, etc., third party system modifications and system accelerations are disabled.
Login and test. Reboot as normal and test. Caches get rebuilt automatically.
a reboot will put it back to normal mode.
This test will tell you if third party interference; extensions etc are not loaded in safe boot mode.
Uninstall all third party apps that are Cleaners/Optimizers/VPN/Anti-Virus
all known to cause issues on the macOS
