http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1112824 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1112824#c5 --- Comment #5 from Robert Munteanu <rombert@apache.org> --- I installed the following packages and the responsiveness has greatly improved: gjs-1.54.2-163.1.x86_64.rpm gnome-shell-3.30.1-393.1.x86_64.rpm gnome-shell-browser-plugin-3.30.1-393.1.x86_64.rpm gnome-shell-calendar-3.30.1-393.1.x86_64.rpm gnome-shell-devel-3.30.1-393.1.x86_64.rpm gnome-shell-lang-3.30.1-393.1.noarch.rpm libgjs0-1.54.2-163.1.x86_64.rpm The CPU spikes are gone from the gnome-shell process as monitored via top -p $(pidof gnome-shell| tr ' ' ',') . I'm intentionally not removing the needinfo flag as my laptop did not have smooth animations before the update either so I'm not sure if the problem is entirely gone. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
