I'm sorry, the 20% part was a bit of an overstatement, after observing more I can say it's somewhere between 1% to 5%.
I have the following extensions active: - Desktop Icons NG - Ubuntu AppIndicators - Ubuntu Dock Disabling all extensions didn't change anything in my case. Also I've noticed an interesting thing: when moving the cursor, CPU usage goes up for gnome-shell AND for whatever process on top of whose window I"m moving it. For example, if a Text Editor window is active, it goes up for the gedit process. If it helps, below are a few screenshots of "top" taken when I moved my mouse, with Xorg and Wayland for comparison, and a video. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2051383 Title: gnome-shell high CPU utilization when moving mouse cursor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/2051383/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
