effect of multiple screenshot
SUMMARY
Hello,
taking multiple screenshots with the keyboard shortcut slows down Plasma which
almost freezes.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set a keyboard shortcut to take a screenshot (e.g CTRL+SHIFT+S)
2. Press the keyboard shortcut and draw a rectangle
3. Press again the keyboard shortcut and draw another rectangle
4. Repeat this again 4-5 times
OBSERVED RESULT
Plasma slows down and then almost freezes. I've 8GB of RAM, with higher RAM it
may take more screenshot to freeze.
See attached image
EXPECTED RESULT
When pressing the keyboard shortcut while a screenshot is running, this
screenshot should be aborted and a new one created. At the moment it seems that
you can stack infinite Spectacle screenshots making Plasma to freeze.
