Hi
It feels to me if the responsiveness of apps to open up in 7.5 is much slower compared to 7.4
This is comparing both as fresh installs on the same machine inside a VirtualBox VM with the same settings?
I also seem to get kernel errors in 7.5 now that 7.4 did not have.
I can't submit the error reports due to my kernel being tainted by the VirtualBox modules.
Anyone else also feeling this sluggishness?
Is it just me or, or do others also feel that 7.5 is much slower in GNOME 3?

I haven't had slowness, however I don't open apps often. Basically I start my most used apps once and then they stay running for weeks until I eventually reboot.

Yeah, stability in CentOS is awesome, that is why I use it for my DEV machines and PROD servers.jimj wrote:I haven't slowness, however I don't open apps often. Basically I start my most used apps once and then they stay running for weeks until I eventually reboot.
This regression may be due to VirtualBox as well, as I am not running my DEV machine on bare metal due to silly corporate domain logon scripts that require Windows.
However in 7.5 (inside latest version of VirtualBox) when I use Files to add an ssh://someserver location, after entering the logon credentials, I always 100% of the time get a Files app crash due to some kernel crash.
But this probably is not the right forum to log this.

I felt 7.5 was noticeably faster (default Gnome and no "built/compiled" installations).
Admittedly, I've been disabling tracker and a few other processes for which I personally have no use the last 12 months or so.
[edit] Sorry, missed the VM part, but even my single VirtualBox (CentOS 7) machine is not 'suffering'.

How would one go about disabling the tracker?

I 'submarined it'.
The backup script that all my machines run (as root) contains a bash call to a script containing:
After a couple runs, you'll receive (normal) errors about the non-existant files!
