Franchise mode - slow sim and menus

When doing anything in franchise mode it's really slow compared to previous versions of the game. To make a roster move or just calendar sim is painful. Even from the stats screen there's so much lag trying to scroll up or down as it's trying to load the player faces in. It's a shame because the new main menu is so much more fluid that if it wasn't for the lag it'd be really good. I found if you close the game and restart the console it helps, but it'll just slow down again after a few minutes. I'm on PS5.
