Bug ID: 500907
Summary: Application Dashboard slow to open
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.3.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Dashboard widget
Assignee: notm...@gmail.com
Reporter: eamonn...@protonmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
The Application Dashboard is slow to open, especially on first boot where it
often fails to appear. The key to summon it (in my case, the Super key) needs
to be pressed 2-3 times for it to actually open. After this, pressing the key
to summon it will work the first time, every time for that session, but there
is about a second of delay until it actually appears.
I am experiencing this on my Arch PC, but I can also reproduce this problem on
my laptop running endeavourOS (although I don't primarily use the Application
Dashboard on that machine).
Note that I have fade transitions turned off on my machines for this test (I
have them enabled on my laptop usually but disabled them for testing, and I
have them disabled on my desktop).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press key to open Application Dashboard, or click on the widget to open it.
2. The first 1-2 attempts will fail, but but third should succeed.
3. After this, close the Application Dashboard.
4. Attempt to summon the Application Dashboard again.
5. There will be a noticeable delay of around 1 second before it actually
appears.
OBSERVED RESULT
The Application Dashboard is inconsistent and slow to open.
EXPECTED RESULT
The Application Dashboard should be snappy.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- Possibly related to 499849.
- There is interestingly a similar delay when showing the "Lock/Logout"
overlay.
- Another similar delay can be observed when opening KRunner, but that is for a
separate bug report :-)
