In my setup (J3455 + 8gb RAM + SSD / Lubuntu 20.04) the response time is miles away from my Windows machines (some are older than this one)

I hope one day some kind of Qt Linux optimization could be applied to the linking/compilation process.


Edit: Just wanted to add that I found an option: raster VS native in a Qt forum. It's old but It seems It solved some performance issues for Apollo Lake.  But I'm not by any means a Qt programmer or a UI expert.

Make sure you aren't using the nouveau driver.
It's simply not complete enough for MC.

Thanks for the sugestión.

 Which driver are you talking about ?

 Which version do you suggest ?

My board is an Asrock J3455 ITX.  The first version (not the J3455-B) with an Intel HD 500 integrated video card.

Just launched a command to check which module/driver is in use:
lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|3D|Display'
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 500 (rev 0b)
   Subsystem: ASRock Incorporation HD Graphics 500
   Kernel driver in use: i915
   Kernel modules: i915

That doesn't use nouveau so that wouldn't be an issue.
The UI performance will never be as fast as windows but it shouldn't be a much slower on the same hardware.
If it's slow on the desktop it's likely your Desktop manager or window manager are causing issues with MC.
It's hard to give you much guidance there. We can only test on our supported release platform which is debian.
MC doesn't use any toolkits, QT, GTK or whatever. All of those operations are done by are own toolkit which makes it portable between Windows, Mac, lnux.
