Beast of a machine on Fedora 41 has terrible performance

Ask Fedora
1

I have a pretty beefy laptop that I bought recently. I’ve been using fedora for a few years now and never had such an issue before. After updating to fedora 41, I did not use my laptop for a week or two (due to master’s and work related stuff) and when I opened it, the performance of the machine seems very poor. I’m not sure if there’s fedora 41 or it’s dependencies based compatibility issue or if the drivers are acting weird, but simple animations like hovering over stuff seems very sluggish and overall performance is pretty bad given the specs of the laptop.

Below is the inxi -Fzxx output along with Gnome’s system info:

This is the only thing I note.
The display is ‘unspecified’
Both monitors show as ‘not-matched’

It appears from the system info that you are using wayland but that does not show in inxi and the monitors are usually identified as well.

Please try running dnf distro-sync and akmods --force --rebuild then reboot and see if things change at all.

Agree, same issue. The performance is very bad. Even typing this take long time. The screen refresh is very slow.
Running AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840U w/ Radeon 780M Graphics.

4

Two things you can look into:

  • Are there any processes taking up a lot of resources? You can check with the Gnome System Monitor
  • Are there any errors visible in the system log? You can follow the realtime logs in a terminal with the command journalctl -f
5

Normal use and no taking up a lot of resources.
Didn’t noticed errors in system log and dmesg.

I set amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x10 kernel parameter few hours ago. No issues so far, but too early to say if helps. Will check realtime logs when start to reproduce again.

6

Set amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x10 kernel parameter fixes my issue or is a workround.
Similar issue.
To disable just PSR-SU, I set 0x200 and it works nicely as well.
Related AMD bug.

7

Is your screen resolution really 9216x2940? That could take a lot of cpu and ram bandwidth to paint. Are you sure that it is running from the nvidia gpu with the nvidia driver and not from the intel gpu?
If you run top, are any processes getting a lot of cpu? You might also be able to run gkrellm to get an overview of cpu, disk, and network activity.

8

This resolution WILL consume a lot of cpu resources if not using hardware acceleration for graphics. I hope you realize that the 565.77 nvidia driver is not the latest and seems to not adequately support the RTX 4070 GPU.

Inxi shows you are using the 6.12.9 kernel while fedora is presently using the 6.13.6 kernel.

My suggestion before you do anything else would be to fully update the system with dnf.
sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
If you installed the nvidia driver from anywhere except rpmfusion then I also suggest that you remove those drivers and reinstall from rpmfusion. If installed from rpmfusion the dnf upgrade should replace the 565.77 driver with the 570.124.04 driver.

9

Hello again.

Is your screen resolution really 9216x2940

Definitely NOT! I did not even notice this back then. Since I couldn’t fix it and had a lot of work to do, I had to switch to another OS. Now, I gave fedora another shot to see if the issue is fixed, but doesn’t seem like it is.

I just installed the latest Fedora 41 workstation release, dnf update/dnf upgrade-d the system, installed latest akmods drivers, ensured that the drivers are loaded correctly by checking nvidia-smi results, which correctly recognized my gpu, then rebooted. After reboot, the same extremely slow and sluggish performance persisted.

The weird thing is, when I don’t install akmod drivers, the drivers coming with fedora 41 itself runs very smoothly, but the caveat being my dedicated gpu not being recognized.

I tried --rebuild-ing the akmod drivers, using Cachyos kernel and using the .run verison of nvidia drivers without akmods, setting renderer to ngl on /etc/environment and etc, but none of them helped at all.

I’ll include logs below again, if anyone can spot any issues or odd values just like the mismatching resolution @william8000 spotted previously.

Thank you all for your time.

Please take a look at the latest edited comment above this one, I’ve updated everything to the latest version, but the problem in question still persists.

There have been many instances of users with problems when trying to use the nvidia .run file to install the drivers. The packages from rpmfusion have been tweaked and tested so it is almost 100% they work on fedora.

What has worked for me (and almost everyone else who has posted on this forum) is to install a vanilla fedora system then enable the rpmfusion-nonfree-nvidia-drivers repo and install the nvidia drivers following the instructions at Howto/NVIDIA - RPM Fusion.

Your card is new enough that you could follow the instructions for installing the open drivers at Howto/NVIDIA - RPM Fusion instead and use the open drivers instead of the proprietary drivers. As I understand it the newer cards (50 series and newer) will not work with the proprietary drivers so as things go forward eventually new hardware will require use of the open drivers.

Yes, developers for the nouveau drivers are not quite able to keep pace with the nvidia development so some of the newest cards are not yet supported.

Personally I would remove the nvidia drivers that were installed using that .run file and reinstall using the drivers from rpmfusion (using the open driver).

I just tried the open version of akmods you suggested, both stable and beta, neither of them fixed the issue. Desktop feels like its capped to 30fps, while 165hz and 240hz set for monitors and the device is surely powerful enough to handle 2x 2K 165HZ as I’ve previously used the same setup with no issues (pre fedora 41).

Thanks to a youtuber, I finally managed to get NVIDIA drivers work flawlessly after almost half a day of searching. I’ll provide the video and the blog post below for anyone having the same issue with NVIDIA drivers with fedora 41.
