Hey, if my assertion incentivizes someone to figure out how to do that,
I'm more than willing to admit I was wrong :).
The thing is, IMO "fast enough" for a desktop calculator is pretty darn
fast. In my opinion the current integrated DEB version is already slow
enough to be frustrating, so there'
That's a good case for keeping this bug logged here under gnome-
calculator. Maybe we should just drop the snap and default to the deb.
I'll assign this bug to ubuntu-meta for that...
Although to say something is not physically possible is just inviting
people to prove that statement wrong. It is
It is not physically possible to ever get a snap to start as fast as a
native application. The entire purpose of a snap is that it uses its
own set of dependencies, which means that by definition it cannot share
those dependencies with other applications on the system, which means
that they must b
Last month some of Canonical engineering met up for a regular
conference. There a couple of talks were given about what's being done
to speed up snap launch times. I was surprised and encouraged there were
a couple of efforts in progress. So better performance is coming...
For this particular bug
I'm not sure why the "is 2s too slow to start" is the question being
asked. Who starts and stops their calculator multiple times in a row?
That's not a realistic use-case for the vast majority.
Most people need a calculator once a day or every few days, and a
desktop calculator is not an applicat

This problem persists on Ubuntu 20.04. See this proposal to remove the

Moreover, the apt package cannot currently be found on Ubuntu 20.04.

Hi, Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS running on SSD laptop with 16GB ram and i7 cpu
here, i can confirm that startup was very slow and was solved doing:
$ snap remove gnome-calculator
$ sudo apt-get install gnome-calculator
Before the "snap remove" startup time was as minimum 10 secs, now is 1 sec or
less.
Hello,
Try to remove the snap package:
snap remove gnome-calculator
And install the deb package:
apt-get install gnome-calculator
I have experimented this on Ubuntu 18.04 and 19.04 and it seem to be really
faster.
I have experienced many speed problems with snap apps. And some was really
lag
We can further improve this now that we have layouts. Once the
snapcraft gnome extension lands, I'll look into adding that to the
extension.

2 seconds it way to slow for simple application like this on a system

Up until recently I've been using a HDD (instead SSD) for my system

On many keyboards there is a dedicated Calculator button so you may
expect a fast launch. I use the deb version of gnome-calculator for this
reason, and it launches apparently instantly. So I understand if a few
seconds seems too long by comparison.

Thanks, the first use is still probablematic indeed. Do you consider 2
seconds as too slow?

Here's my trace. You can see the first launch takes around 2 seconds.
Second run takes significantly less time. In both cases `/snap/gnome-
calculator/406/bin/desktop-launch` is what takes most of the time during
startup.
Quick spec:
- Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8400 CPU @ 2.80GHz
- Corsair Force MP510
Could those having the issue copy the output of this command in the bug?

At least on Ubuntu 18.04, I found that the version from the apt package

The calculator starts very slowly. It's a tiny program, but it runs like
a very big one. In previous versions of Ubuntu, the launch was normal,
very fast.
