When I execute commands such as nvidia-smi
, glxinfo
, vulkaninfo
, eglinfo
, the compositors stutters, it drops frames.
KDE ksystemstats
uses nvidia-smi
to query GPU stats then my screens stutters every 2 seconds.
I tested it on Sway and KDE Plasma (Wayland).
The 535.113.01 driver is not affected by the issue.
Can’t reproduce this.

KDE should not be using command line interfaces for getting information. File a bug report.
It also happens with nvtop
which which relies on NVML.
The issue issue is noticeable with a high refresh rate monitor such. 144 Hz in my case.
Here is a screenshot of vkcube
with nvtop
running.
The frame time curve should be flat without spikes. The whole screens including cursor stutter.
