Hi - I have just upgraded one of my systems to Leap 42.1 and am encountering a problem that is turning into a showstopper for us. Every few minutes, and in particular it seems after clicking on the launcher in the kicker bar at the bottom of the desktop, the system comes to a near halt for a few minutes and does not respond to a lot of mouse or keyboard input actions. Any shell window that is open will be responsive but much of the GUI stops responding. I have discovered that when this happens, top reports that the plasmashell process is using 100% of the cpu. Google has not provided me with a solution that I can understand, so in layman's terms can some kind guru tell me how to fix this issue? I will gladly provide any additional info needed, and thanks in advance for your help.

When I first installed Leap on my laptop, I was having the same thing
happen, and it turned out it was the baloo file indexer. After about 10
hours when it finished indexing everything, it went back to normal.
Still, though, there is something buggy about it, because it shouldn't
bog up the system like that.
I have also had some stability problems in KDE on my desktop pc, and I
added the KDE frameworks 5 repository and upgraded to it, and it seems
to have helped my desktop pc. So I am going to do the same thing for my
laptop.
This is the repository:
