Please be careful to only discuss one problem per bug report. If you're
experiencing multiple problems then please open separate bugs for them.

Continuing with this bug...

I suspect the problem here is that disk IO is directly affecting
animations. They shouldn't normally be related to each other, but one
way that can happen is if gnome-shell is blocked in writing a log
message. It can become blocked if there are regular log messages being
written, and then every 5 seconds the kernel will block in order to
flush to disk.

Please run this command in a Terminal window:

  journalctl -f

Now reproduce the problem again and please tell us if the Terminal
window shows NEW log messages while the freeze/stutter is happening.

** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

** Summary changed:

- Gnome Shell pauses and stutters when under heavy load
+ Gnome Shell pauses and stutters while waiting (several seconds) for programs 
to launch
