Bug#996670: libkdecorations2-5v5 migrated to testing too early breaking Plasma
severity 998386 normal
retitle 998386 Plasma gets very slow when compositor is disabled on bare metal
thanks
Hi Chris,

Bingo.

But I guess you had, or some cosmic radiation induced bit switch did it
for you on your hard disk ;-) The default for all installations is being
on.

Not really sure. Nowadays running without compositor might not really be
possible. I don't have an opinion on that.

Hmm, that is indeed strange, though.
Anyway, I retitle and adjust severity of the bug for now.
I suggest that *you* create a bug report at upstream (I guess kwin?)
because I cannot reproduce it on my systems (AMD based), and upstream
devs will need detailed informations.
Best
Norbert
