Hi all, I'm seeing more and more that one very big source of instability in plasma- shell for me are tooltips, especially quickly passing the mouse over many stuff that has a tooltip (making many move/resize event, many content changes) I don't know if is a driver issue (happens for me with catalyst and nvidia blobs). but often doesn't just freeze or kill plasma-shell, it brings down the whole x session for me.
I seen that if i disable animations in tooltips (animating the position of an x11 window is probably not a such good idea anyways ;) the situation gets slightly better and i have slightly less blowups (sometimes still happens with taskbar thumbnails, but they seem to have instabilities as well). I propose to disable the moving animation of plasma tooltips at all for now (hoping that wayland, as universal solution of the world's problems, will solve that too ;) one thing that may be done, would work using the kwin effect currently used for windows maximize for animating (in a fake way) tooltips position and size?
