Just my opinion but a VirtualBox installation https://www.imore.com/how-set-and-use-vi...e-your-mac + a lightweight linux is only going to cost your time and you get a regular Gimp installation.
Agree! install a virtualbox and put a linux distribution, GIMP will be faster and not hang.
But if you never went to the Linux world, where to download a Linux system, especially for new comers to Linux?
Just 3 links, about systems I know for using them, other members can help you as well with their preferred systems
here https://mxlinux.org/download-links/ (my kids using it for more than 2 years just to tell how easy this distro is (before they were using the same Linux as me) also the live USB of this distro is just incredible if you want to try it without installing it
here https://linuxmint.com/ easy for beginners (tried a long time ago, not sure I can remember how it was)
here https://ubuntu-mate.org/download/amd64/ (I'll recommend the 20.04 LTS on this page, I use this system from 2016), with this one you can make it look like a Mac in just 3 clicks.
