Bug ID: 441389 Summary: [Feature Request] Make KDE start faster Product: kde Version: unspecified Platform: unspecified OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: wishlist Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org Reporter: tob...@g3ro.eu Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Hello, the start time of KDE is very long (50-60s). In comparison other DEs such as XFCE, Cinnamon and Gnome start significantly faster (10-30s). I would like to request improvements in this sector. Some general ideas are: - options for a delayed start of specific services etc. (if that is even related to the problem) - decreasing file sizes (of e.g. config files, icons etc.; whatever is loaded during start) (as this problem seems to be related to harddrive access) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Login in the Display Manager 2. Wait EXPECTED RESULT Faster start. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel-Version: 5.10.60-1-lts Graphics-Platform: X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have already tried different options etc., but nothing changes much. Others are also reporting this problem and it seems "normal". At least on HDDs. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
