This is a bug I just experienced on one of my manjaro computers. I was puzzled as fuck because cpu/io usage wasn’t high but it was pretty slow.
Maybe this will help someone.
I had that happened to me using i3, the fix for me was
Remove/replace xdg-desktop-portal-gnome with the -gtk variant
As stated here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=286103
Haha, knew it was related to portals. Apps taking 20-30s to open while the system is not under stress is almost always a portals misconfiguration.
Try to remove ‘xdg-desktop-portal-gnome’ if you have it and then logout the screen
Thanks! Turns out I had xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland left installed from a previous test (now running on i3)
Thanks!
I have this bug with Firefox and Thunderbird on my laptop, but not the workstation. Already re-installed and was equally puzzled as I didn’t saw any load eitherI’ve been experiencing this issue too! Finally, thank you for this
Nope, all fine here.
Wow, I’ve had this for maybe a year now and was just living with it. Figured it was an audio thing, but Firefox only. Hopefully this fixes it.
Edit: yep, fixed! 😮💨
I had this kind of problem recently. It was something around flatpack. I removed everything related to flatpack and it solved the problem.
