Bug ID: 415065 Summary: Dolphin 19.08.3 lags with a large amount of tags Product: dolphin Version: 19.08.3 Platform: Kubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: panels: places Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: louis...@protonmail.com CC: kfm-de...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 124437 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=124437&action=edit Video demonstrating the issue. SUMMARY Dolphin freezes on startup for a second or two if there is a very large amount of tags, and modifying items in the Places panel, for example, hiding an item, causes a huge delay and a lot of lag. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a large amount of tags (I tested with 350 tags) 2. Open (or restart) Dolphin 3. Hide an item in the Places panel OBSERVED RESULT Dolphin hangs for a second or two as it reads and parses the user-places.xbel file, and modifying Places causes it to lag, and it takes seconds until the change is completed. The problem seems to get worse every object you modify in Places. EXPECTED RESULT Dolphin does not freeze on startup and modifying the Places panel is responsive and instant. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Linux 5.3.0-24, Kubuntu 19.10 with Backports PPA KDE Plasma Version: Plasma 5.17.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.64.0 Qt Version: 5.12.4 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION This issue seems to depend on the speed of the machine running Dolphin. A slower computer might be worse off, and a faster computer might not have this issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
