Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues and found none matching what I'm reporting.

Bug Description

app-center on 26.04 scrolls and updates its framebuffer noticably slower than other applications (firefox, ptyxis, steam, ...).
this is best visible with a high fps monitor (120 or more).

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  • open app center
  • start scrolling the long startpage
  • observe sluggish movement updates
  • compare with scrolling in firefox

Expected behavior

app center should refresh its frame buffers quickly so scrolling looks smooth.
