Title:
Ubuntu freezing intermittently when the mega.nz appindicator is loaded
Status in Ubuntu AppIndicators:
Unknown
Status in gnome-shell-extension-appindicator package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-shell-extension-appindicator source package in Focal:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[ Impact ]
Indicators using (big) pixmap icons cause the shell to use a lot of
CPU computation, which interfere with user experience
[ Test case ]
- Install mega client from https://mega.nz/sync
- Run it in ubuntu and ensure it doesn't block the UI while syncing
(but even opening/closing the app should be enough to trigger
Alternatively use this test tool:
https://github.com/ubuntu/gnome-shell-extension-appindicator/blob/master/indicator-test-tool/testTool.js
Launch it with `gjs` and select the 'Crazy icons updates' menu item:
- The shell should not hang
[ Regression potential ]
Icon updates may be late or not apply immediately (or at all).
In general there has been a refactor of the iconCache, so internally
it may happen that we load an icon more times, or that there could be
an increase in RAM usage as per missing garbage collecting of it.

I had similar issues when 20.04 was released, then it disappeared with
an upgrade - but sadly it's back. I have short intermittent freezings
of the OS. About every 15-30 seconds Ubunut freezes for a second or
two. Eg when writing this description, the OS freezes every second
word. When the freeze goes away the OS is snappy. I have tried
switching between Wayland and Xorg - but the problem persists. If I
write something when it freezes up the last
chhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhharacter will be replicated many times -
like what happened jusssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssst now. This
problem did not show up in ubuntu 18.04 through 19.10. Hope U can
fix this soon - using my laptop in unbearable.
