***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE

2. Open System Settings Application and under Workspace select Window Management
3. Change any setting and click Apply

Here are the examples of the results:
- stage change of any object which should change its state while hovering over it with mouse pointer happens after 1-2 second delay
- typing reaction in Konsole is with similar 1-2 second delay
