I’m not sure if this is normal, but it seems that Plasma 6 (Wayland) feels overall slow on my laptop with Intel i5-6200U.

Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition
KDE Plasma Version: 5.90.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.246.0
Qt Version: 6.6.0
Kernel Version: 6.2.0-37-generic (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-6200U CPU @ 2.30GHz
Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 520

I only got this laptop recently from a friend so I have yet to test on X11 session. The only other time I’ve spent using Plasma was on a RTX 3060 Ti in a VM so it didn’t feel as slow.

Is that normal?

Created bug report 477959.

    I didn’t need to. I didn’t boot it up till yesterday to look for other causes, which was when I realized the fan died.
