SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Have over 2000 desktop icons in total 2. Click Application Dashboard from taskbar to open it 3. OBSERVED RESULT Taskbar freezes (unresponsive) until the dashboard has been loaded EXPECTED RESULT Dashboard should open straight away without freeze SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0 Qt Version: 5.12.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Plasmashell has a very large memory footprint after loading (2.5GB in my case) Plasma shell also becomes unresponsive when any new program adds a desktop file to the application dashboard until it has reloaded application dashbaord
You're saying number of desktop icons affects how quickly the dash loads?
