Endless OS addresses desktop performance |
|
|
A while back the Endless OS distribution introduced automatic updates in order to make sure its users always had the latest available security updates. While this move made the distribution's desktop software more secure, it had an unfortunate side effect: the user interface would sometimes become unresponsive while security update were being installed. The Endless OS team is now addressing desktop performance by switching process schedulers and making the update process run with a lower priority. "In Endless OS, we switched the I/O scheduler from CFQ to BFQ, and set the I/O priority of the threads doing Flatpak downloads, installs and upgrades to 'idle'; this makes the interactive performance of the system while doing Flatpak operations indistinguishable from when the system is idle." Details on the change can be found in this blog post.
