Title: Delay launching application launcher gets longer the more apps are open Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: [ Impact ] On latest up to date daily image on my ThinkPad X220 / i7 / 16GB / 150GB SSD. If I launch a bunch of applications - possibly a slightly unreasonable number, but a lot anyway - with minimal CPU or memory in use, the button to launch applications in the bottom left takes progressively longer to run. Video showing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRbFk-n9KzQ [ Test case ] - Launch lots of applications - Click in the applications icon in the launcher (or press super+A) - Animation should not be delayed (some delay is still expected depending on the number of installed applications) [ Regression potential ] Windows in activities overview might have wrong positioning --- Steps to reproduce. Open application launcher Note a ~0.6s delay before the icons fly onto the screen Open GNOME Software Install all the editors picks Launch a bunch of applications Click the application launcher Note a 4s delay before icons fly onto the screen. Expectation Honestly, no delay at all, but it should be at least consistent with when no applications are running, so 0.6s delay as per the state when no apps are launched.
