Public bug reported:
Apologies if I have misfiled this bug - this is a report of an issue
affecting Wayland in Ubuntu 24.04 beta.
Using 24.04 beta logging in with Wayland. Nautilus has very significant
performance issues. Doesn't happen when logging in with Xorg instead of
Wayland.
Opening Nautilus windows - including normal windows navigation, and the
file download location dialogue in things like Chrome - extremely slow.
Takes approx. 10 seconds to process user double clicking to open folder.
Attempting to drag folder across screen usually doesn't work, or takes a
very long time.
Not very skilled at debugging, but programmes like Gimp, which has its
own built-in folder explorer for choosing a location to save an image,
do not have this problem. Ubuntu 24.04 with X does not have this
problem. No performance issues have been noticed with folder navigation,
stat'ing files etc. over the command line. It is only nautilus and
Wayland that give me this issue, so I suspect it is not an issue with my
SSD.
The following output was observed when starting nautilus over the
command line:
/home/me/ $ nautilus .
** Message: 23:43:50.560: Connecting to org.freedesktop.Tracker3.Miner.Files
libEGL warning: egl: failed to create dri2 screen
After approx. 10 seconds, the folder opened on screen. I double clicked on a
sub directory, and it took about 9 seconds to open.
I have attempted to show that this is not an issue with my SSD here:
/home/me/ $ date; cd workspace/; touch foo.txt; ls foo*; cd ../; date;
Wed Apr 17 11:58:16 PM BST 2024
foo.txt
Wed Apr 17 11:58:16 PM BST 2024
As you can see, no unusual slowdown was observed.
Obtaining the following setting for my bug report, I note that the
'Settings' GUI utility is among the areas affect by my very significant
system slowdown. I have copied some details about my system including
its graphics card in case that helps.
