[16:56] hello. i need some assistance with configuring gnome 3 shell. when i click on applications menus, they are very slow to appear or update [16:56] not sure how to improve this ! [17:00] also its like.... 'Gnome 3 uses over 10x more CPU than Gnome 2 when moving a window or opening the main menu' [17:02] ^^ if that is true, then i suppose there is a strong case for installing gnome 2 shell (at least allongside), until gnome 4 is ready [17:08] ah! 18.04 ---> MATE with the mutiny layout. that shout speed up the performance a whole lot
