[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1901017] Re: Desktop gradually increases response lag to clicks in 20.04 (Fixed by Alt+F2, "r"))
This bug closed in comment #9 because the original reporter did not answer questions in comment #8. Without that we can't be sure about the root cause of the problem. Bugs like this can have countless different causes and yours is probably different to the original reporter, so please open a new bug. -- 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/1901017 Title: Desktop gradually increases response lag to clicks in 20.04 (Fixed by Alt+F2, "r")) Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: After a day or so of uptime, system will grow quite sluggish to respond to mouse clicks.

@venvugt It looked like the bug was closed just due to inactivity, not because it was invalid. I don't have enough information to create a new bug - I was just adding information to this one.

I also have been encountering this issue. It's happened a few times now - it only happens after my machine has been up for a while. I start to notice it when alt-tab takes a substantial proportion of a second to switch between windows. gnome-shell seems to be taking quite a bit of CPU time (10% to 30% cpu), but that's possibly just normal. I do have a network mount of a NAS drive, but it doesn't appear to be being probed (I would hear the NAS box spin up). I've attached the result of running the following commands: lspci -k > lspcik.txt gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.shell > settings.txt glxinfo > glxinfo.txt journalctl -b0 | tail -100 > journal.txt I see many Javascript type errors in the journal which might have something to do with the issue. As with the original poster, Alt-F2, then r fixed the issue (at least I have a workaround now!) and I don't see the regular JS errors appearing in the journal any more. ** Attachment added: "gnome.bug.zip" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1901017/+attachment/5452889/+files/gnome.bug.zip -- 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/1901017 Title: Desktop gradually increases response lag to clicks in 20.04 (Fixed by Alt+F2, "r")) Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: After a day or so of uptime, system will grow quite sluggish to respond to mouse clicks.

It sounds like the gnome-shell process only is being slowed. Do you have any network mounts perhaps? What if you remove those?
