Created attachment 117394 [details] system monitor shouwing high cpu usage SUMMARY after a short period time, plasma ui elements stop working STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. log in with plasma (non-wayland) de 2. wait for 5-20 minutes OBSERVED RESULT can't interact with task bar and krunner, cpu usage of plasmashell and krunner reaches 100%, all opened apps work as before, can switch between windows with alt+tab. EXPECTED RESULT - SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 29 KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.53.0 Qt Version: 5.11.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
When usage is at 100% please can you run: sudo gdb --pid `pidof plasmashell` from a command line. Then when it loads type "bt" to get a trace and paste that here. Ideally then type "continue" followed by control+c then "bt" to get a few traces.
I wasn't able reproduce this bug after reporting it. No updates, no package changes, it simply disappeared. I'll provide logs if it comes back (hopefully not). Also, I found a similar report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=401272 Thanks!
