Public bug reported: I searched and found related bugs #1774188 and #1847566, but one of those is against 19.04, which is end-of-support, and the other was abandoned with no feedback from the OP. So, let's try again.
When unlocking my screen, it takes progressively longer to unlock. After a fresh restart, it's pretty quick. After about a day, it takes about a second. After a longer period, it takes up to 5 seconds. When I press Enter at the lock screen to get to the password entry, the "wipe" effect commonly stalls as it gets near the top of the screen; not sure if this is related. After correctly entering my password, it takes several seconds before my desktop is visible. It's _there_, because moving the mouse around changes the mouse pointer according to what's under it (e.g. it turns into an I-bar on the Firefox search/address box and a finger icon on a link). It just takes several seconds to actually draw the screen.
