Tried again, update was successful.

I did. It's been happening since yesterday.

Program terminated.
Could not fetch destination file "https://mirrors.rit.edu/solus/packages/shannon/f/firefox/firefox-239-240-1-x86_64.delta.eopkg": [Errno 12] Timeout on https://mirrors.rit.edu/solus/packages/shannon/f/firefox/firefox-239-240-1-x86_64.delta.eopkg: (28, 'Operation too slow. Less than 1000 bytes/sec transferred the last 120 seconds')

Happens both through the software center and "sudo eopkg up". It starts downloading then around the 55% mark it freezes.

I'd like to mention that I resolved the Firefox issue by deleting the profile folder and reinstalling it.

I'd like to comment that this issue still occurs to me in v89.0.2

Scotty-Trees I'm not accusing anyone of not putting in enough time/work to meet my standards of "development". I'm just sharing my own observation of a slowed development and was curious what it was due to. And yes some (definitely not all) of the comments seem to have this prejudice against my question and taking it with the assumption that I have some negative intention (harrasing, making fun or just criticising the developers), which I do not. I have to admit that before Josh's comment I was not aware that Budgie's desktop view is considered feature complete. I still stand on my opinion that it is lackluster, but if this is what the developers have decided, then so be it.

I'm glad that this innocent and genuine question got some of you so defensive. I wonder what about my post was "Over Dramatic"?

Solus always had a rather slow development, but it seems that recently it has almost stopped. Budgie desktop, desktop view, sol and new software center. It seems neither have been getting any kind of development, at least according to what I'm seeing on github and software updates. Budgie desktop view was last updated 2 months ago. I don't understand why the Solus Dev team deployed it, when it's barely functional. This is not intended to be negative, just curious.

@JoshStrobl ?

I'm on stable.

I was just about to open a thread about this.

I'd appreciate it if someone could investigate to find out what's going on. Firefox does the same thing, but it started to do it even longer ago.

pomon I did. Same thing, still takes over a minute to open.

SMART says that they are both fine. I'd like to mention tho that the ssd is a dramless one. Potentially if nautilus opens hunderts, or thousands of files when opening that could be the problem. But like I mentioned this never happened before the update.

I don't agree with the opinions of Josh and DataDrake, but I do respect their right of an opinion. I also respect that they signed it representing themselves and not Solus.

Ever since nautilus was updated (along side the intruduction of the budgie desktop view), it has been taking forever to open. This one happens the first time I have to open it, every time after it opens near instantly as to be expected. Sometimes it can take literal minutes for it to open, which is not acceptable in any kind of way.

Last time I used an Nvidia GPU, which was about a 1 year ago, it worked fine. Just install the drivers and you're done. There were some minor problems with stuff like Discord, but they were eventually fixed.

Harvey The thing is that I don't have 400+ processes running. I closed everything including the xorg server, and added up all of the processes memory. I used the same units (Mib or Gib), and all of the info came from one place (so if I was using GNOME System Monitor to count the processes, that the only source of information I would use, the rest would be for reference). I refuse to believe that I Solus ( or Linux in general for that matter) cannot consistently report something as simple and cruicial as memory usage.

It's not the high memory usage that's bothering me. I've never used more 1/3 of my 16gb of ram. The point is that I can't seem to figure out where the usage is coming from. Being somewhat of a perfectionist it's been driving me insane to the point of considering reinstalling or even switching distro.
