Thanks Patrick, I didn't realise Plasmashell was multi-threading. I'd never heard of pstree, so I'll have to check that out. regards, SteveOn Fri, 2025-03-21 at 08:33 +1100, Stephen Morris wrote: [Lots of stuff deleted.

I'll also need to look up the instructions again for switching between DM's again as I'm thinking of switching away from SDDM as it's start up performance is atrocious, but then the start up performance of KDE/Plasma is not much better.The processes run from plasmashell don't die when it crashes or is restarted. The processes it starts run asynchronously. If you look at 'pstree' for example, you'll see lots of GUI-related processes running under systemd, including plasmasehll itself.
