--- Comment #7 from yiz...@kulodgei.com --- My ticket was marked as a duplicate so I will add details below. As it was suggested earlier that this is a performance issue from the system being under load that simply can NOT be the case. I have these issues from a cold boot with nothing but KDE Plasma and associated services running. My computer has 8 cores with 8 threads, 16 gb of RAM runs on an NVMe with 2,500+ MB/s read/write speed and a beefy Nvidia card and a Fiber gigabit connection. When this happens before the freeze happens you can see in system monitor the load is around 1-5% for CPU, less than 1.5gb of RAM and the disk is barely doing anything. Could it be some kind of resource locking issue? In my ticket a user also reported this happening with Arch pacman updates. Could it be a Konsole/terminal bug? Flatpak updates are just a front end for discover after all, you can even see the output in Discover if you run another command in Konsole while it does flatpak stuff. And when doing installs of flatpaks I run those via Konsole and not Discover. kwin 5.26.5-1 konsole 22.12.1-1 discover 5.26.5-1 ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// SUMMARY Lately when I update or install a flatpak my entire Plasma session becomes unresponsive until it is completed. This may take a couple seconds for something small or a minute or two when it is big flatpak runtime like nvidia drivers. During this time I can only move my mouse cursor around but cannot click on anything. I have a beefy machine so I do not think it is performance related. My guess is some kind of locking is happening. I do not think this is a Discover bug because it happens whether I am updating in Discover or installing via Konsole like flatpak install flathub org.mozilla.firefox STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Update or install a flatpak OBSERVED RESULT The entire Plasma sessions becomes unresponsive until the install or update is complete. EXPECTED RESULT No impact to performance SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.101.0 Qt Version: 5.15.7 Kernel Version: 6.0.15-hardened1-1-hardened (64-bit) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Here are some of my flatpak and other related package infos flatpak 1:1.15.1-1 bubblewrap 0.7.0-1 kdeplasma-addons 5.26.4-1 plasma-browser-integration 5.26.4-1 plasma-desktop 5.26.4-1 plasma-disks 5.26.4-1 plasma-firewall 5.26.4-1 plasma-framework 5.101.0-1 plasma-integration 5.26.4-1 plasma-meta 5.25-1 plasma-nm 5.26.4-1 plasma-pa 5.26.4-1 plasma-sdk 5.26.4-1 plasma-systemmonitor 5.26.4-1 plasma-thunderbolt 5.26.4-1 plasma-vault 5.26.4-1 plasma-wayland-session 5.26.4.1-1 plasma-workspace 5.26.4.1-1 plasma-workspace-wallpapers 5.26.4-1 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
