Public bug reported: Binary package hint: konsole
I'm running Kubuntu Jaunty. I'm doing most of my work in konsole, mostly using tabs. Ever since I upgraded from Intrepid I observe that konsole is getting slower and slower after a few hours of work have passed. I can feel a slight lag (only a few 100ms, but annoying as hell) when changing between tabs or changing the screen content (changing into another channel in irssi). Same when cat'ing a large textfile, it is fast and smooth after login but gets pretty sluggish after a few hours. It is probably not related to Bug #343714 since my memory consumption appears to be normal, there is plenty of RAM free or used as disk cache, also only a few MB of the swap is used. Restarting konsole completely (I made sure no konsole process was left running) doesn't help, logging out and in again does. So far I have experienced the problem on three different machines, all running Jaunty Dell Latitude D630, G965, EXA, Desktop Effects Dell OptiPlex 760, Q45/43, UXA, Desktop Effects self-made ASrock 780G-based (radeon-driver), EXA, no Desktop Effects I think the OptiPlex got better after I switched to UXA, hard to tell. Also I can't rule out that other KDE parts or the whole system are affected, konsole is just what I'm using most, so I can compare the performance there. Systems are up to date. bschm...@lxbsc02:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu jaunty (development branch) Release: 9.04 ii konsole 4:4.2.2-0ubuntu1 X terminal emulator for KDE 4 ** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [jaunty] konsole getting slower https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/355870 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
