Description OlafLostViking 2016-09-21 16:41:01 UTC
KDevelop 5.0.1 (not selectable in the dropdown above) shows a strange startup behaviour. After starting it, the IDE window is created and correctly filled with content of the last session.

But then it hangs for two or three seconds without updating the screen. Resizing it via KWin breaks the window content until the next redraw. After that it behaves snappy as expected.

It looks like the GUI thread runs, after initializing everything, some parser job or so instead of sending it to the background. But that is speculation...

Anything I can do to give better feedback?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start KDevelop.
2. See IDE drawing.
3. Wait some seconds until GUI becomes responsive.

Could be related to the Welcome page troubles we had in the initial 5.0 releases.

Presuming this got fixed.
