Bug ID: 491034 Summary: CPU and GPU usage increase when panel is hidden Classification: Plasma Product: plasmashell Version: 6.1.3 Platform: Arch Linux OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Panel Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: strangealfa...@gmail.com CC: niccolo.venera...@gmail.com Target Milestone: 1.0 Created attachment 172128 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=172128&action=edit iGPU usage comparisson between panel visible and hidden SUMMARY CPU and GPU usage increase when panel is hidden STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Boot up/wake up system 2. Right click on panel, go to panel configuration 3. Set visibility to auto hide 4. See that the panel is hidden 5. Wait a minute on wayland, or a second if using X11 OBSERVED RESULT plasmashell and kwin start using CPU (about 8% max) and GPU (0-3 to 250-350MHz). This stops when the panel is raised, then continues when hidden. EXPECTED RESULT System should idle just like when the panel is always visible SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.4.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I've once managed to make the consumption stop by opening a bunch of windows and the application launcher and closing all of them afterwards, then the system idles just fine, but it resumes when rebooting or waking up from sleep. It also stops shortly when getting a notification, and resumes afterwards. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
