I’ve recently come to a problem of the interface slowing down, when booting to EOS from my second laptop. The main problem being the apps to take several seconds to open (brave browser, firefox, nautilus, …). The hardware should be able to handle those like nothing (i7 8core, AMD Radeon integrated, 8GB RAM). My DE is Gnome 46.2, Wayland.
I tried to disable gnome extensions (such as Blur My Shell, which could slow down the DE a bit), but the problem persists.
GNOME has a significant memory leak. You can track it by checking the memory use of gnome-shell. I believe the only fix with Wayland is re-logging or restarting. With xorg, Alt+F2 > r should work too. It is annoying, but it doesn’t appear to be a priority for them. and sorry for delay

GNOME má významný únik paměti. Můžete to sledovat kontrolou využití paměti gnome-shell. Věřím, že jedinou opravou Waylandu je opětovné přihlášení nebo restart. S xorg by měla fungovat také Alt+F2 > r. Je to nepříjemné, ale nezdá se, že by to pro ně bylo prioritou. a omlouvám se za zpoždění

Ram is cheap, so it’s not really a downside since most people don’t run Gnome on lightweight systems or are into hardware preservation and want to use all their ram for work tasks. People that need more ram just add more ram into their system, same goes for storage.
