Hello, Try to remove the snap package: snap remove gnome-calculator
And install the deb package: apt-get install gnome-calculator I have experimented this on Ubuntu 18.04 and 19.04 and it seem to be really faster. I have experienced many speed problems with snap apps. And some was really laggy. For example, with discord on snap, on one of my laptop: crashes, and mic problems. For the other laptop: Really laggy, 5 to 10s between the time I type something, and the time it appear on the screen, on a laptop with 2 SSD. I have the time to start firefox 3 times on the same period, and discord in firefox doesn't present any of theses problems. After this, I remove the snap version, and install the official deb version (from the discord website), and no problems. Fluid and not full of bugs. Same problem for Atom (atom.io), buggy and laggy with snap. I don't understand why snap is slow like this for certain apps, and I don't understand exactly how snap works, but I suspect him to be the cause of many slow apps on recent versions of Ubuntu. On my laptop, for gnome-calculator, the time to open: - Snap: 2 to 10s - Deb: 0.1 to 1s I can't say it's definitely snap, but I suppose you can look at this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-calculator in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1797734 Title: slow calculator startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-calculator/+bug/1797734/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
