@mruffel: interesting, I am right now already at 5.15.0-37-generic from: APT-Sources: http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates/main amd64 Packages
I gave up with custom Kernels as it seemed they provide no clear improvement better then running the ubuntu package with iommu turned of as you recommended. The last I tried was 5.18.1, but that doesn't work with the virtualbox dkms stuff which I depend on for work. I assume this wont better with 5.19, but i can try later. I cannot say for sure if / how much of the problem existed in 21.10 because my usage scenario changed around the time when I updated - a new work project, more videocalls, and I am traveling and use the laptop more for media consumption as youtube and videos like this: https://www.zdf.de/gesellschaft/markus-lanz/markus-lanz-vom-7-juni-2022-100.html I had twice weekly videocalls with Teams in the browser which drove the CPU up and the fans on, but did not stutter to a point of being impossible. But now I (try to) use Zoom, every day, and it's basically not possible - I have to use my (twice as old and much weaker mobile CPU) windows tablet for this. I cannot "easily" start a full clean install as I need the machine for daily work, and setting everything up from scratch takes some while - but I will try to get a second disk to be able to do it but keep the exiting install to work as good as it is. I might be able to restore a pre-update state of my system into a free logical volume and run this. Will see how far i get! It might very well be that I have multiple problems at once and every one of them contributes a bit to the poor performance I see, also because multiple changes seem to lead to slightly better behaviour each: * turning iommu off makes things from extremely unsmooth to nearly acceptable * turning intel_boost off makes things a bit better and acceptable * moving from gnome to lxde gets me even pretty stutter free video(but not the UX I want...) It could be a combination of kernel / graphics library / gnome(-shell)... OR it could be *only* a kernel thing, but slightly suboptimal behaviour of graphics libaries and gnome. E.g. gnome-shell has a lot of short cpu load peaks on a single core, which should normally not block everything else but maybe can lead to video stuttering when process/IO management and scheduling are wrong in the first place... I'll keep testing and experimenting when I have spare time and report any findings here... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1973434 Title: massive performance issues since 22.04 upgrade Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi, After upgrading to 22.04 i had to fight with massive performance issues. Browsers appeared to hang every other minute, youtube videos being laggy and hang in between, applications in a virtualbox VM where slow and also hanging every other minute to a level of not being useable. On a pretty recent and powerful system just 2 years old. I noticed CPU jumps in top, but also somehow thought it could be a graphics issue so invested some time installing nvidia drivers properly. Also I wondered if it might be the lowlatency kernel I normally use because I do audio stuff, and switched to generic. But nothing helped. ThenI had the idea it could be a kernel/scheduler issue because the system wasn't always slow, but it appeared certain things kept hanging when other processed had a lot of cpu for a few seconds. So I got a recent mainline kernel, configured it with my last running config from 21.10 before the update, made the debs and installed them, and now can tell that a mainline kernel 5.17.7 with all the dkms modules that i had before which got compiled automatically at installation brings back a "normal" performance. I can browse the web, run multiple youtube vids at once, even in another browser, have thunderbird running, and a virtualbox machine open with another browser for some web app testing and everything runs fine and smooth, no lagging. Not sure yet what the real reason is - either the kernel version, or a patch in the ubuntu version, or the 22.04 kernel config so far, or some configuration made in 21.10 that isn't good with 22.04 and it's kernel anymore. I will go ahead tomorrow and see if I can build a vanilla kernel with the config from the ubuntu 22.04 kernel and "make oldconfig", then I will be able to tell if only the config is making the difference. Please let me know of there is anything I should test to further analyze this issue, or any ideas I can try to solve it without having to run a mainline manually installed kernel. Thanks.
