I hope to find some time to improve Gnome Shell's performance/smoothness by next year (and hope also that others will do the same). Smoother animations will be less frustrating at least. Although I personally like the current duration.
As for changing the animation duration, that's an enhancement request you should probably make directly to Gnome -> https://bugzilla.gnome.org/ ** Tags added: performance ** Changed in: gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock (Ubuntu) Status: New => Opinion ** Package changed: gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock (Ubuntu) => gnome- shell (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1728702 Title: Show Applications animation is too slow Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: Clicking "Show Applications" on dock takes too long to display applications list. First screen fades out, then icons float to screen. While animation actually takes only about 1s, it feels slow. Whole animation should be 2x or 3x faster, or icons could just appear with screen fade.
