Can confirm @bitdrifter 's solution. Disabling Usb Printing seems to resolve the issue.

That’s a nice trick, thank you. Disabling the USB printing plugin seems to work.

Disabling USB printing: The model is instantly loaded with providing it as parameter, via drag&drop, and via manually opening it through the menu.

Enabling it again: Behavior as previously discussed.

Disabling again: loading models works without delay.

@Dirk: I had the problem that opening took very long until (for example STL) the file was imported. I only use octoprint and did not connected the printer directly to my pc. Aftert looking in cura log ($HOME/.local/share/cura/5.7/cura.log) I realized many tries to connect to any serial port. So I disabled the USB plugin in Cura and it worked after that normal again. You can disable it via: Marketplace -> Settings Icon on top right -> "USB Printing". Maybe this helps somebody.

I need the script solely for running it with the platformtheme parameter without having to provide it every time I start Cura because of this behavior. Without this parameter I can’t open files at all.

I never really cared about AppImages. But downloading and starting the one from the Ultimaker website does not work at all (to print bed shown, opening files does not work). Naively adding -platformtheme gtk3 to the AppImage call seems not to work. So I cannot test, sorry.

@Dirk: Does running the AppImage also have this issue, and is that local/bin script fixing the issue for you?

The delay when opening files is super annoying, it also seems not to be consistent to work around being able to open files at all.

I first tried the trick with providing the absolute path, but it did not work even after a few minutes. Then I added STL models through the menu multiple times without anything happening.

Then out of a sudden ca. a minute later 2 of the 4-5 models appeared. Here’s the full log:

This is independent from uwing X11 ode Wayland. I used Wayland (labwc). My cura startup setup:

$ type cura
cura is hashed (/usr/local/bin/cura)

$ cat /usr/local/bin/cura
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/cura -platformtheme gtk3 "$@"

Just tested on a modern AMD graphics laptop. Only by rotating the empty bed I could see framerate differences. pkgrel4 is more smoother.

prurigro commented on 2024-05-09 19:21 (UTC)

I have both vulkan-radeon and amdvlk, and it's possible that amdvlk might be the default? That might account for the difference if it is.

So far the problem the fix addresses only seems to affect nvidia users, so let's hold tight and limit it to that subset of users until someone with amd or intel reports otherwise.

Thanks again for the report, as well as your offer to test!

bioxz commented on 2024-05-09 19:08 (UTC)

That ZINK error seems to be caused by an incompatible Vulkan driver. Are you using vulkan-radeon as well? If the fix would bring an advantage to AMD users as well and there is something I could test, let me know.

prurigro commented on 2024-05-09 15:06 (UTC)

@bioxz: Thanks for the report! I wonder why it didn't kill performance on my RDNA2 card. Either way, I'm pushing an update that limits the fix to nvidia users.
