What issue are you seeing?
Codex app almost always freeze UI for a few second to a minute, mouse going into blue spinning wheel while inside Codex app window, while rest of the machine runs fine.
The freeze seems irrelevant to the tasks themselves as the freeze always seem to happen before the task truly start, as well as right after the task finishes.

submit new prompt or task finishes
What is the expected behavior?
