Bug ID: 393977
Summary: Dolphin has become very slow after recent update
Product: dolphin
Version: 18.04.0
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: bugreporte...@gmail.com
CC: elvis.angelac...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Dolphin has become slow recently. In particular, adding or moving a bookmark in
the Places panel has a delay of several seconds.
To reproduce, create a new bookmark in Places or move an existing bookmark up
or down in the Places panel. There is a delay of a few seconds. Previously,
there was no noticeable delay. I now experience these delays 100% of the time.
Just now I timed it and there is a delay of about 5-6 seconds before the moved
bookmark appears moved, then there is a delay of another second or so before
Dolphin's GUI is responsive again.
Also, if I leave Dolphin open all day, even normal navigation from location to
location also becomes very slow. To reproduce, navigate to any location using
Dolphin. There is a delay of several seconds before Dolphin refreshes to show
the new location. During this time the Dolphin UI is unresponsive (Dolphin
appears frozen briefly). Previously, there was no noticeable delay. I only
experience this if Dolphin has been open for a while. If I close and reopen it,
I do not get the very long delay when navigating to a new location.
I'm running KDE on Arch. Here's some system info:
plasmashell --version: plasmashell 5.12.5
dolphin --version: dolphin 18.04.0
Linux 4.16.6-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 30 12:30:03 UTC 2018 x86_64
GNU/Linux
The previous time I looked at my version, I had plasmashell 5.12.3 (a couple
months ago). Dolphin was fine in that version. So the problem started after
that version, but it may have appeared before my current version. I first
noticed it several weeks ago. Nothing about my system has changed other than
normal Arch updates.
