I use an Apple Magic Mouse 2 a fair deal in tandem with a trackpad. Recently I've experienced some serious sluggishness/lagging in Mojave (I'm not running Catalina yet), and I've had great luck with the following fixes.
Mouse For Mojave Windows 10
I updated to Mojave OS and my Kensington Expert mouse is no longer recognized. The latest driver from Kensington doesn’t fix it. Using an expert mouse pro that. Question: Q: Installed Mojave, but mouse and keyboard lose connection after a while. I just installed Mojave, on a new iMac Pro and have been unable to solve the following problem. After a period of inactivity, - probably when the computer should enter sleep mode - it becomes impossible to use the mouse, trackpad and keyboard. To use Magic Mouse, simply pair it with your Mac Mojave. Start by switching on your Magic Mouse. Next, go to System Preferences and find the Set up Bluetooth mouse option. Follow the on-screen instructions so you’ll be guided through the entire pairing process. Here's how to Fix Laptop touchpad not working issue on your Windows or Mac (macOS) computer. Learn more?.

Fingers crossed 🤞 this works well for others with similar wireless mouse problems. (I've got a Magic Trackpad as well, but never experienced slowness or stuttering when using that for input. This is exclusive to the Magic Mouse.)
The first lesson: keep your mouse charged. Many reports of bad behavior relate to the device having a lower battery. Charge regularly and there's a good chance you'll be off to the races again. (And re-charge yourself, too. Read something, or take that short walk-around-the-block you always tell yourself you're going to take! 🤜🤛)
If you use a mouse pad: make sure your hand position isn't keeping the mouse too near to the top edge of the mousepad. Passing over any edge/threshold (for some optical sensors) can create confusion and cursor stutter, though it really seems to stand out with the Magic Mouse.

And for the 'under the hood' stuff: from a Lifewire article I came across, we've got:
...a number of preference files related to the mouse that could be causing the problem. As a result, you can [...] get rid of all of them, and let your Mac rebuild the preferences.
The culprits we're looking for are located in your ~/Library/Preferences folder. You'll want to delete the following:
com.apple.AppleMultitouchMouse.plistcom.apple.driver.AppleBluetoothMultitouch.mouse.plist
Reboot to rebuild them, and (hopefully!) enjoy a smooth and snappy magic mouse experience!

The fixes above prevent the lag for 90% of the time, but I still experience issues from time to time. I'm continuing to dig into this further and will update the article accordingly.
