I am using a Nvidia graphics card on Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS. For anyone having this problem as did I.

This is strange. I've been profiling gnome-shell 42 on jammy and gnome- shell 46 on noble.

The profile in comment #18 is intriguing because it very clearly shows meta_idle_manager_reset_idle_time is the problem for you. But when I profile my own systems, that function accounts for under 1% of gnome- shell's time.

To answer your first question: I'm testing on a freshly booted system with no applications running. Regarding extensions: After I disable the Desktop Icons NG extension (appears to be one of the built-ins), peak CPU usage for gnome-shell goes from ~55% to ~35% when moving over an empty desktop. When moving over an application such as gnome-terminal, CPU usage for gnome-shell increases to ~60% both with and without this extension (and also gnome-terminal itself consumes about 25%).
