Bug ID: 489328
Summary: The CPU consumption of the `plasmashell` and
`kwin_wayland` processes become stuck when switching
through Virtual Desktops
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.0.5
Platform: NixOS
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: grave
Priority: NOR
Component: Panel
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org

Top showing the processes steady high CPU consumption
SUMMARY
When the main panel is hidden using the Auto-hide feature, and I switch through
virtual desktops, the `plasmashell` and `kwin_wayland` processes become stuck,
consuming a considerable amount of CPU cycles; please check the attached
screenshot.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set the default panel to auto-hide
2. Switch to a different virtual desktop
3. Open the wonderful Konsole or Yakuake terminal emulators and check the
mentioned processes' CPU consumption, i.e., with `top`
OBSERVED RESULT
There is an (expected?) spike in the CPU consumption when switching to another
virtual desktop; however, the high consumption gets stuck instead of eventually
going down
EXPECTED RESULT
The CPU usage spike goes down moments after switching to another virtual
desktop
