I have had to make the decision to only run plasma on my machines here that are Ivybridge processor family or later. On machines where the graphics hardware is a serious limitation I have found that some performance can be regained by switching off all desktop effects, and turning off desktop cube animation for switching between desktops within plasma. You might want to check or list the hardware on the machines affected? Others may have other suggestions but you would need to provide information about your hardware and possibly diagnostics from log files before people might be able to suggest what the problem is. -- mike c
