SUMMARY
Plasma freezes when I change activities.
I can interact with windows, and KWin is responsive, but plasma itself (the panels, widgets and the activities sidebar when I use it to change activities) are all frozen for a period of time tha lasts between 10 seconds and about 2 minutes.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. change activities.

OBSERVED RESULT
Kwin changes activities, and Plasma freezes for a while.

EXPECTED RESULT
Plasma and KWin chang activities in a short moment.
