Poor OS Performance - First Install
performancequestion
Today I installed Bazzite (KDS version) on my Dell laptop for the first time. I switched from Windows 11 because the OS was using up all my storage and slowing everything down. I completely nuked the Windows install and wiped my drives clean as part of this process(did save a system image on an external drive just in case). I have no desire to run a dual-boot setup.
I have Bazzite up and running (after some trouble with the install https://discordapp.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1447340713179222136), but the OS seems to be moving very slowly. Everything from opening a program (even simple ones like Dolphin or System Settings) to resizing a window takes several seconds. Windows 11 had been slowing me down, but it wasn't nearly this bad.
I am concerned that I may have accidentally installed the OS on the wrong drive or something. I'm not seeing any evidence of my SSD on Dolphin, except perhaps the device labeled "/" which shows 0B free of 40.9 MiB. HDD appears to be labeled "bazzite-nvidia-open_fedora".
How have I messed up the install? Are there just some settings I need to change?
