Description boucaron 2015-06-17 08:01:11 UTC
Description of problem:

- Boot is very slow with respect to 21 (no additional stuff at startup)
- A SSD is used, it is nearly as slow as a HDD now for the time elapsed to boot
- Similarly, it takes anormal time from the login page to show the window manager (Gnome)
- The responsiveness of all gui apps seems not good (Nvidia Nouveau driver)
- Checked cpu/disk usage nothing special 

NB: I did not know what component to put

I found that 3 services are not running correctly, I am checking:
- kdump.service
- postgresql.service
- sep3_15.service

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Postgresql missing db upgrade, done working fine

Comment 4 boucaron 2015-06-17 08:16:19 UTC
Kdump configured and the other module is for Intel Vtune (which does not work under Linux kernel 4.0)

Comment 5 boucaron 2015-06-17 09:29:15 UTC
Artifacts/Refresh issues see ticket:
1232637 and 1232659

Comment 6 boucaron 2015-06-18 09:05:12 UTC
Artifacts/Refresh issue confirmed on the Nouveau driver, not such issue in the Vesa driver. Graphic card Nvidia GT8800.

Comment 7 boucaron 2015-06-18 09:21:38 UTC
No artifacts issue with Nvidia 340.x driver.

It takes ages to have the window manager --> Gnome  ?
I switched to text mode, the boot is as fast as expected

Comment 8 boucaron 2015-06-18 09:28:35 UTC
Performance issue is Gnome related.
I rename the ticket for Artifacts issue and create another ticket for the performance issue with Gnome.

Comment 9 boucaron 2015-06-23 20:32:29 UTC
Small update, a usb device was putting some mess.
I did not have any Artifact issue with the Nvidia driver, I reinstalled the Nouveau driver to check if I am still having the issue

Comment 10 boucaron 2015-07-15 05:57:06 UTC
Not any more any issue, closing ticket
