How long do you have to wait for the Dash to appear when you tap the Super button or click the Ubuntu icon?
Unity has dynamic search &c and I find it takes a little time to build the Dash home lens.
Because the Gnome Shell 'Activities' overlay is not building a dynamic list, it seems to appear almost instantly.
- jiri 15y agoYes, this is not instantenous, but ok fast, few hundreds of ms for me. Also using Unity 2D instead of std Unity bothers me a bit. Anyway I am really suprised by overall performance, apps start very fast and laptop has 4 sec suspend/3 sec wake up. (altough it often takes additional timea for wifi to reconnect again).
- keithpeter 15y agoThanks, I'll take that as something like a fifth to a quarter of a second! I'm seeing nearer half a second, which is above my annoyance threshold. The Dash home lens is actually providing a lot of context by listing the recently used apps/modified files/and even the played music. I sometimes wonder how many people use that context! The times for the app loading and suspend/resume is down to your hardware which is obviously fast with the ssd.
