I'm really confused why were are assuming this is a kernel issue? What is GNOME doing with the kernel that could cause this?
I just encountered two other users in a Discord server that I frequent that have this same exact issue (GNOME is extremely sluggish and they have Intel CPUs), but only with GNOME, and only on Tumbleweed. All other DEs work fine. All other distros with GNOME 3.30 work fine.
There's gotta be some patch we apply to GNOME or *something* along those lines causing this... it seems extremely unlikely that it would be the kernel as these users have no issue using KDE Plasma or Xfce on the latest Tumbleweed snapshot (20190126). GNOME runs much slower for both of them on Tumbleweed than on Arch or Fedora, but only GNOME. As I said above, what would could be going with the kernel that would *only* affect GNOME?
Everything is very difficult, as I wrote above, the gnome is very dependent on how well the processor works in the operating system, any error in the kernel can affect its operation, which in turn can lead to different regressions, so the possibility of such exclusion was it is impossible, for example, by disabling the spectre protection, it started to work better, patches were applied to the kernel, not the gnome, there were such conclusions from here, currently disabling patches does not change anything at all, and he again started to lag after the latest updates.
GPU <- [ [ Cogl + Cairo ] <- [ GDK + Clutter ] <- GTK+ ] <- application So GNOM works, need to check these packages, I don’t have enough skills to check it
I tried plasma 5, it also lags me, not like a gnome, but it’s still noticeable -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
