KDE Plasma 6.4 Preps Improvement To Help KWin Reduce Frame Drops
In addition to this week's release of Plasma 6.3.1, KDE developers have been busy preparing more bug fixes for what will become Plasma 6.3.2 next month. Additionally, more feature code for Plasma 6.4 continues to bake.
KDE developer Nate Graham is out with his great weekly recaps of all the interesting Plasma changes for the past week. This week's highlights include:
- Plasma 6.4 KWin's render loop initialization code uses a more precise timer that should reduce frame drops. It's a switch from CoarseTimer to PreciseTimer to avoid a +/- 20% timing offset with coarse timers.
- With KDE Frameworks 6.12, when the KDED6 daemon crashes it will now automatically restart itself.
- Plasma 6.4 de-clutters the Digital Clock widget's context menu.
- Various Plasma 6.3 bug fixes.
A rather light week but those wanting to learn more about these changes can do so via Nate's blog.
