SUMMARY I have a folder view widget in my panel that points to my downloads folder (which has a lot of files in case that could be an issue) and when I scroll either with the scrollbar or the mouse scroll wheel the whole shell starts to lag and freeze. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Have a folder view widget with a relatively long file list 2. Scroll far OBSERVED RESULT The whole shell lags and freezes. EXPECTED RESULT The widget should scroll normally. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: Arch Linux with zen kernel 6.3.6 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.106.0 Qt Version: 5.15.9 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Only seems to happen under Wayland; the problem occurs also with the folder view set to "list" rather than "grid"; another little bug is the cursor that gets stuck in a position (e.g. the arrow with the plus symbol or the closed hand cursor) when hovering on a panel or widget after the folder view causes lagging.

Can reproduce lagginess and even brief freezing when dragging the scroll handle with the popup in Grid view. List view seems to work much better for me.
