Sorry, I just realised these are indeed two very different bugs. I am moving to bug 1698792 to focus on the activities overview.
P.S. I also have a patch which should help this bug 1750197 a bit: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/26 P.P.S. Please use only Xorg sessions for now if you need the best performance. Wayland has its own unique performance bottlenecks I will work on later, probably in 18.10: https://trello.com/c/Q6JYXPPs ** Summary changed: - Activities overview causes heavy CPU spikes in Wayland & Xorg + App drawer animation causes heavy CPU spikes in Wayland & Xorg ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Assignee: Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: mutter (Ubuntu) Assignee: Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: High => Medium ** Changed in: mutter (Ubuntu) Importance: High => Medium ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Confirmed ** Changed in: mutter (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1750197 Title: App drawer animation causes heavy CPU spikes in Wayland & Xorg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1750197/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
