Tried dual booting Manjaro KDE with Windows 10, with Manjaro KDE being on second drive. I often get endless black screens with /dev/sda2 clean, rebooting sometimes fix the endless black screen, but the booting times are still very long compared to Windows. Everything is slow and unresponsive: text boxes, categories in application launcher, settings. Some of those features become faster and snappier the more i use them, but after some time, they become unresponsive again.
Also tried dual booting XFCE, it was snappier, but still felt slow.
