Hello,
I’m running manjaro on Dell G5 with Gnome and nvidia hybrid drivers. Since around Xmas updates the UI started to freeze for couple of seconds when I’m starting some larger application.
Example: I have 8GB mem free, system is pretty much idle, the fans are off. I click to start IntelliJ and the system freezes for like 3-5 seconds (the clock stops, can move the mouse, can’t switch windows, etc.), after those couple of seconds the fans starts spinning and the UI becomes responsive again.
Any hints on what to check or where the problem could be?
Here’s the output from inxi about my system confiuration

What’s the output of:
inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width
free --human
before you start said application
and:
free --human
after?

Your swap is on an encrypted volume and swapping is taking place. That’s the only thing I can think of, so: move the swap to an unencrypted partition / file…

Hum, pretty sure that’s not it. I’ve just tried to run the program with having 8G free memory and the UI was still lagging.
