Help..Experiencing slow Excel files on MacBook Pro. The same filesare fast on the PC.

I was hoping to understand why Excel files within my Microsoft 2008 software
on my new MacBook Pro run so slow. I have worked with these large Excel
files on a PC for years. The same files on the Mac are running too slow to
realistically convert my business to the Mac.

For example, Copy and Paste functions as well as highlighting sections of
the file are taking several seconds on the Mac. (about 10) Meanwhile, they
are nearly instantaneous on the older PC running Microsoft 2002.

Can anyone help me understand why large Excel files run faster on an older
pc with Microsoft 2002 than the latest version on a new Mac?

Is it just the nature of the newer version for Mac?

Will an older version of the software help?

Thank you.
