More Tips to Increase KDE Performance
Another way to make KDE run better and faster is to run minimal applications at a time. Having too many applications take up the computers resources and can make KDE run slowly – just like any other desktop system.
Removing unneeded program from the auto start program will help to speed up the start up of KDE. Start up files can be deleted if not needed or moved to another file.
It can also help to stop K Desktop Environment system configuration. This runs on start up by default. It will run when the computer is turned on and it will slow down the computer’s functions.
It is also a good idea that users understand that K Desktop Environment is being developed by a group of volunteers. They do not have corporate resources, like other operating system developers. So, to expect the same performance is not reasonable. KDE users should be willing to accept KDE for what it is and respect the work that went into it. To expect too much is not ever going end with happy results.
When changing or turning things off it is smart to make sure that nothing is done that can not be undone. Create a backup or be ready to uninstall and reinstall KDE. As mentioned, making too many changes when you are not sure of what you are doing could greatly impact how KDE works. Be smart about it and you are sure to be able to find some ways to optimize
