SUMMARY As far as I understand the statistics refresh rate of network monitor widget has been forced to 1 s (see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=433063). However, on my system it seems to be about 0.5 s, so I'm wondering why the forced 1 s interval does not work on my system and if it is possible to set the rate at least for other system monitor widgets (I see the same behavior with CPU usage, Memory and Core temp) since I can't find a setting for this and it's too frequent for my taste. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Archlinux packages KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.79.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I'm not using NetworkManager to configure my network (I'm using netctl), but I have the networkmanager, networkmanager-qt and libnm packages installed.
Since Plasma 5.21 this seems to have been increased indeed and the widgets are very active, up to a point where they are quite annoying/disturbing for me. I would also appreciate an option to reduce this frequency or at least to have the previous frequency back
