SUMMARY When running the plasma system monitor my intel iGPU is 70% utilized. Without it the utilization is only around 2-5% Such a significant performance impact kinda defeats the purpose of a resource monitoring application. Other KDE apps have no noticeable performance impact (tried: Settings, Dolphin, Kate, Gwenview). STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Have a machine running Intel Comet Lake UHD Graphics using the Mesa 24.0.9-0ubuntu0.2 driver (Other GPUs & drivers might be affected too) 2. Check intel_gpu_top 3. Start plasma-systemmonitor 4. Check intel_gpu_top again OBSERVED RESULT 70% GPU Utilization EXPECTED RESULT Lower GPU utilization.
