Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status.

Here I upload a short video of one occurrence of the issue with a freshly started libreoffice writer. It shows the CPU load of gnome-shell while moving over the open drop down menu. 25% means that one CPU is at 100%. You can see that the load increases when I stop and the file name hint pops up. ** Attachment added: "Video of the issue" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1514357/+attachment/4550329/+files/out.m4v -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1514357 Title: Opening new windows or menus (e.g. "File") in programs, switching workspaces becomes slower and slower over time in Gnome To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1514357/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have encountered this problem too. It happened with a freshly installed Ubuntu-GNOME 15.04. Now with Ubuntu-GNOME 15.10 and gnome-staging ppa it's still there. It's a real pain. You wait for the menu to appear then you click and wait for the menu to disappear again. As RK mentioned a reboot helps also restart of gnome-shell helps (Alt+F2, r) at least for a short time. But in contrast to RK I don't see anything unusual in syslog. I'm working on several AMD APU desktop systems with open source radeon driver. I tried Mate 1.12 from ppa and there the problem is not present. All modal dialogs and context menus (right click) appear fast and disappear the same way. How can I help to track this issue down? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1514357 Title: Opening new windows or menus (e.g. "File") in programs, switching workspaces becomes slower and slower over time in Gnome To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1514357/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
