Is it mostly when opening different windows and you get the spinning busy circle on the screen? I remember there used to be issues with rotate animations eating up CPU on the original RPI, so if there is a quite significant slow-down opening windows compared to other skins, then there might be a benefit in having an option to enable an animated gif version of the busy loader instead.
I'm trying to optimise the skin as much as possible, so any details you can give me would be a great help in locating problematic parts of the skin.
Hi @
jurialmunkey
Sure, will do. Right now I'm at work but I will play with it later today. I'm also going to give the Pi3 q little more memory for the graphics card, I forgot that yesterday.
From what I saw yesterday it is basically like you said, opening windows like Settings/Addons etc. is slow. The movement feels also not a 100% fluent, like when moving up or down but that my also be a little imagination.
For example going to Addons and clicking on Program Addons takes about 10 seconds to load them fully, also every other item category it's the same.
I will try a few things and answer again in the evening and provide more details if necessary
Thank you for answering, cool to see such good support.
Edit: After some testing with the settings you suggested and a little overclocking I couldn't see any difference. Something seems to keep the Pi's CPU constantly at about 95%, it kept constantly overheating at about 85C. Went back to Artic Zephyr for now, found my love again for that Skin 😀 Looks so great.
Also it's smooth.
Feel free to Tag me if I can help any way.
Thank you.
