System randomly hangs when opening UI elements (apps, tabs in Chromium, pressing the Applications button, etc.)
Hello! There is a bug in GNOME 3.32.2 where the system randomly hangs for 2-3 seconds when opening UI elements like opening the Spotify app, opening a new tab in Chromium, pressing on system UI buttons, etc. This only happens with Kernel Mode Setting enabled using the proprietary NVIDIA driver.
I have documented this bug a bit here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=246050
I am quite sure this is a gnome-shell bug as this doesn't happen with KDE.
