MT5 performing poorly after the update

Unfortunately 5572 is considered as an official release, not a beta. Michael Charles Schefe #:
5572 was pushed onto me. and when downgraded to 5430, it was pushed onto me within hours again! I did not click beta update or connect to mq data server.

If I understand correctly, the update will only be installed after restarting the terminal. Try installing 5430, and then don't restart the terminal until serious bugs in the latest release are fixed.

Hi everyone,
After the latest MetaTrader 5 update, I started facing serious performance issues related to charts and indicators.
On a clean installation, MT5 works normally. However, as soon as I apply my usual trading template (which contains several indicators that worked perfectly fine before the update), the chart becomes extremely laggy and sometimes freezes completely. The rest of the terminal remains responsive, but the specific chart with the template applied becomes almost unusable.
This behavior started only after the recent update. Before that, I used the same template and indicators daily without any performance issues.
What I already tested:
Fresh reinstall of MT5
Clean profiles (no indicators) – works fine
The problem only appears when applying my template
Other MT5 installations (older builds) still work normally with the same template
This suggests that the latest build introduced some compatibility or rendering issue with certain indicators/templates.
If anyone else is experiencing similar issues after the latest update, please let me know.Any advice, workaround, or confirmation from MetaQuotes would be greatly appreciated. I can also provide logs or additional details if needed.
