When you write an essay in response every question, it's very difficult for me to find the information I need to continue troubleshooting. I don't think I can help you any more with this issue, sorry. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[plasmashell] [Bug 457370] Task manager causes Plasma to hang with heavy usage
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457370 --- Comment #18 from David Chmelik --- I can only theorize why KDE halts on opening 10 (maybe) or 15 (likely) or 20+ (definitely) programs. Of course I can't screen record; all you'd see is shell command I use to launch programs--I 𝘥𝘪𝘥 state which (twice)--and before they do much/anything than open a window area, KDE apparently halts permanently (sometimes I even went to do something else and checked back an hour or two later): thus, there'd be no way to save the recording. I guess I can learn video camera, but I doubt you'll see much useful from a video with one to few seconds activity. My description what slows task manager is only what I saw some programs updating and slowing but not always halting KDE, more than a year ago (so don't recall which other than mostly in my twice-given list). I seem to recall at some time most programs (on any internal activity) caused task manager updates/flashes, but the task manager may have been reconfigured/recoded to not as much/anymore. It probably wasn't programs that wait to do much/anything, though I opened quite a few of those (one is KATE I have 10 tabs in which change in titlebar but I don't know if opening a session changes those); some were dozens/hundreds tabs in chats (hexchat, pidgin, which both change titlebar on tab opening) & web browsers (some which change titlebar on tab opening though are also just sessions similar to KATE), pan (Usenet newsreader, with 1400+ subscriptions some doing 100,000+ updates in status bar) and eiskaltdcpp & nicotine & transmission which open hundreds thousands of files (though none in titlebar, 2/3 maybe status bars and opening the files causes temporary slowdown). I'd have to go use KDE again and test these to see/record if they do that but don't know if they're actually the reason or if it's just starting 20 programs in something from a fraction of a second (launcher) to a minute or two (manually, which can have same effect) is too fast for the task manager for some other reason. I'm willing to do this after trying to make a video of the halt but don't think any these on their own will halt KDE... even the chats, which I now realize do almost 200 titlebar updates, won't halt KDE on their own, and web browsers won't either, but it could be the case all these opened fast might do it which I can check later. I also know people who use significantly more programs than me on their PC, which is what I might call a high workload. Mine was just medium-to-high and the report title no longer reflects that--it wasn't every time I opened all these but is increasing over time except when I only use X for a short while. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

What does that mean? What apps are you talking about? Can you describe *exactly* what those apps are doing that causes the Task Manager to update or flash? I ask because this does not seem like normal behavior. A screen recording might help avoid a lot of bash-and-forth questions and answering. If you could attach one, it would be very helpful. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Can you clarify what "doing millions updates again" means? Are any of these apps rapidly changing their window title or rapidly changing whether audio is played or not? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
