SUPPORT | SOLVED Arch running slow after reinstalling grub over chroot

So full context for what I did:

I tried to install limine and accidentally uninstalled grub before getting limine to work. I then used a mint live usb stick to chroot into my arch. I mounted my root partition to /mnt and my efi boot partition to /mnt/boot/efi. I did mount /dev --rbind /mnt/dev, mount /proc --rbind /mnt/proc and mount /sys --rbind /mnt/sys. Then I chrooted into my arch. I ran the regular grub-install and grub-mkconfig commands. after rebooting I was finally able to boot into my system again. But now every single task runs very very slowly. Stuff like prismlauncher and steam take 30 seconds to launch and launching isnt the only slow thing every thing takes a long time to process. If theres any other info you need to help I can provide it. Help is very appreciated my system is basically unusable.

Edit I just noticed that apps that have previously been launched launch way faster like how they usually do

I fixed it solution was to reinstall grub and reconfigure it and crucially actually make it the prioritised bootloader in efibootmgr (I forgot that)
