Bug ID: 369568
Summary: Dolphin causes temporary freeze !
Product: dolphin
Version: 16.08.1
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: panels: folders
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: fanis...@yahoo.gr
My OS : MAUI 1 (KDE Plasma 5.7.5 - 64 bit)
During the file transfer (cut and past 40-50 jpg pictures from one folder to an
other in the internal hard disk) with one dolphin window opened, I noticed that
the panel was entirely "frozen" (clicking with the mouse on to the panel
icons/application starters : menu icon / firefox icon etc.- it did nothing !!),
until I could see a (plasma) message that the transportation of the files was
done!! The problem occurs every time !
During some other file management jobs (plenty of files) the system load is
very high, especially if dolphin remains open. Somehow and sometimes my PC
reminds me a Sinclair Spectrum I had 30 years ago..... The user has to wait
making a cigarette and there is no multitasking. I think that, somewhere
between dolphin and plasma is possibly hiding a bad management of available CPU
resources !
I say that , because closing dolphin immediately after the file management job
starts (file removal - tag changing - etc..), it seems that the work is
completed normally and much faster (in background) while, the user has the
ability to do something else in foreground.
I have installed the MAUI OS in a SSD (it's a new Samsung SSD 840 - it seems
good and fast).
I keep some files here but I also keep files in an other disk (hdd - ext4
format).
AHCI mode is enabled (BIOS) for all the SATA controllers . I think there is no
problem with the disks.
MY PC : Mother board / Gigabyte GA-X38-DS5 , CPU / 2 x Intel Core 2 Duo E 8400
3.00 GHz , RAM 8GB , Graphics / NVIDIA Geforce GT 710
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Cut and past 100 or more icon files (jpg - etc) from one folder to an other
or try to give a new common tag to many files together in the same folder. Keep
Dolphin open.
2. Try to click on the menu icon before you see the report that the file
management job is done.
3.
