It's about 1-2s for me which is fast enough
Wait really? It takes like a whole minute for me
That's weird. Is it a specs issue? What distro are you running?
I'm running gnome on Arch. Im using a hard drive so that might explain it. Also it sometimes unexpectedly freezes(might be my nvidia gpu). I've spent months scouring forums and chatting with fellow users but non have found any way to increase the speed.
Yeah that explains a lot... An ssd will make a giant difference, and they're really cheap right now
I had a Bad ssd that had a similar effect. Even though it passed the badblocks test every time. Maybe there is something in the logs about the controller.
