Definitely affects me as well, although I'm on mint 18.1 running KDE. I have to restart plasmashell at least twice daily to keep it responsive. However this command solves all my issues temporarily: "kquitapp5 plasmashell && kstart plasmashell"
I'd just like to know the cause of this issue, as it really shouldn't happen in a "desktop ready" OS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1592668 Title: plasmashell is eating 100% cpu and all UI is slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-workspace/+bug/1592668/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
