[opensuse] Leap 42.2 sluggish?
I've installed Leap 42.2 in VirtualBox on openSUSe 13.1. One thing I've noticed is it's very sluggish, sometimes to the point of almost frozen. Anyone else notice this? By comparison, Windows 10 runs fine in VB on the same system. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

is a filesystem indexer like "bamboo" or "tracker" running? Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

You can become aware :) ps -ea | grep tracker ps -ea | grep baloo -- Gertjan Lettink, a.k.a. Knurpht openSUSE Board Member openSUSE Forums Team -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Nothing for tracker. jknott@leap:~> ps -ea | grep baloo 5216 ? 00:00:00 baloo_file Top doesn't show either. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Top doesn't show either.
That's because this issue is a red herring. Baloo does not induce and significant load, since it only indexes your user directory, and there is unlikely anything much in there yet. Its exceedingly efficient. Slowness in Virtualbox can be a symptom of too little video memory provided by virtualbox. Drag that slider all the way right. Stick to 2D video acceleration for now, especially if you want to run headless. Mount virtual drives with noatime. Make sure you have Virtualbos GUEST additions installed in the Guest. It might try to run without these, but it will be pathetic. Turn off KDE bling till you get that all taken care of. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

That's something I do anyway. I have reinstalled 42.2 and I'll see what happens. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Not me. In both my bare-metal machines and my VirtualBox and Vmware virtual machines I'm running Plasma/KDE's compositor and it is fast enough that I don't see any differences. This has really come a long way in the last year or two. You can toggle it off and on with Alt-Shift-F12, and see it hardly makes a difference on my oldish AMD video or my Newer-ish Intel video chipset machines. I use things like transparency, wobble windows, and some (but not all) animations. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I reinstalled 42.2 and it seems better so far. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
