It seems like your desktop is doing something screwy on a per-desktop cache basis that is causing unneeded paging to swap of the inactive desktop apps resulting in very ssslllloooowww desktop switching.
I am bit reluctant to ask which desktop?
XFCE.
Actually, I suspect how Leap handles swap. It reads it very slowly. 13.1 was faster, same load.
I know others have mentioned it, but I routinely set swappiness to 10, e.g. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Swap#Swappiness $ cat /etc/sysctl.d/99-sysctl.conf vm.swappiness=10 -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
