- DisplayServer (Linux): improve performance for X11 Try fixing #634 — committed to fastfetch-cli/fastfetch by CarterLi 7 months ago
Should be fixed in the latest dev build. Please test.
On my slow linux machine,
Displaycosts about 1257ms.xcb_randr_get_screen_info_replycosts 592ms andxcb_randr_get_screen_resources_replycosts 608ms.Thanks god KDE is deprecating X11!
I’m able to reproduce this issue. Seems that it only happens when an external display is connected and the builtin display is disabled.
It’s really strange. I will investigate it more tomorrow.
It’s expected. It’s displayserver that costs the time, which is used both for display module and lm / de module
