Public bug reported:
> What you expected to happen
Normal operation: no delays when typing or moving windows around
> What happened instead
Since a few days ago I started noticing occasional lag when typing
(sometimes three words appearing together, as on a slow netword
connection) and when moving windows, as if the system was on a high
load. If I close almost everything it gets a little better, if I restart
Gnome Shell with ALT-F2 r RETURN it gets better for a few minutes.
Ghome Shell is always one of the top consumers of CPU and RAM, but this
was always the case. I don't have particular problems with RAM, I'm
usually not using more than 20 GB out of 32 with many long running
programs (VMs, browsers, etc).
Sometimes I notice a Gnome Shell crash in the logs, as the one I
attached.
