            Bug ID: 432342
           Summary: New themes section is painfully slow
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: 5.20.5
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: kcm_lookandfeel
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: kitt...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
The "get new stuff" section inside global themes, plasma style and colors is
extremely slow at loading images. This makes theme selection and download very
frustrating.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open system settings
2. Go to one of the aforementioned sections
3. Enter the "new stuff" dialogue

OBSERVED RESULT
previews of listed themes load in about 5-7 seconds each. Moreover, when you
scroll down and back up, previously loaded images have to be reloaded with same
waiting time.
Just to give you an idea, it's like I'm back in the 90s with a 56k connection.

EXPECTED RESULT
Images should load as fast as my internet connection is (it is, a lot). Also
notice the old looking dialogue from the "get new window decorations" does not
suffer from this issue and loads everything instantly.
I also have a kubuntu 20.10 install (plasma 5.19.5) lying around and it doesn't
suffer from this issue in any section, even the new looking dialogues work
correctly.
