Using latest KDE, right click context menu is very slow to load

Hello,

I recently installed Garuda to my new computer. After full system update, when I right click to display context menu, it is very slow to load. After that, it is very slow to respond (create new takes 15 seconds and more), which makes it almost unusable. This is happening also in Dolhpin, however not on Thunderbird and not for example in Konsole.

How recently did you last update?
This means that a reboot is pending. Just in case…

That sounds like this issue:

I don’t notice this on a powerful workstation. But on a laptop with a weaker i5 7300HQ I can reproduce the problem. This also happens in the hamburger menus e.g. in Dolphin. But that should be fixed by now.

Watch the CPU usage when you open the context menu.

And yes, reboot your system like @filo already said.

Can you plz post a screenshot of your context menu?
The fix that was made (not by Garuda) also fixed a quite different context menu look, so if you got the normal look and still got those slow downs, the issue is elsewhere.

I still have this issue, and i updated recently
it happens on the plasma deskop in dolphin and even in the console context menu
any other sugestions on how to solve this.

I’m afraid I would suggest to check open bugs at bugs.kde.org and open one if you find nothing similar.
No one else has reported context menu issues since the fix.

Have you tried an X11 session, rather than Wayland at the login screen?

Possibly an X session will not present these problems.

Maybe a simple reboot will help?
Which global theme are you using?
@tbg definitely means wayland instead of x11, you are already using x11 :slight_smile:

Ya, don’t pay any attention to my absent mindedness these days. If it’s not my vision, then my memory fails me. :stuck_out_tongue:

I am on Hyprland and I also have this issue. It occurs for any KDE application, but for other applications (e.g. Firefox) there is no problem. The context menu looks like this:

My waybar also likes to disappear sometimes but that’s definitely my fault (see Fixing plasmashell and I’ve created an abomination)

Have you guys tried changing the Kvantum theme (to various other ones, not just 1 alternative) and uninstalling kvantum?

If uninstalling, a re-login might be required.

Kvantum fixed similar issues a few months ago, but again it seemed to work, at least for those who had the issue back then.

Changing the Kvantum theme works! I’ll be using Nordic-bluish for now as it is very pretty and works for me too.

The problem now is that the Sweet theme packaged with Garuda is barely functional and causes context menus, especially large ones, to take 20+ seconds to load. For example, opening the Kvantum theme context menu took 26 seconds. As soon as I swapped themes, it was instantaneous.

That’s probably not KDE then.
Sweet did make a fix on his kvantum theme that was improving performance months ago, but maybe it’s worth open a new issue on this in case he missed something.
