Description:
When I upgraded the Nvidia driver, my desktop became very laggy and unresponsive, to the point were even the mouse would only move in 5 second interval.
I've only ran on it with a Wayland session, since i reverted back to the previous driver shortly after the incident.

Package Info:
Name: nvidia / nvidia-utils
Broken Version: 545.29.02-2
Working Version (The one I reverted back to): 535.113.01-8

Steps to reproduce:
Run KDE Plasma 2.27.9-1 in a Wayland session, with the Nvidia driver.
This task depends upon

Possibly [1]. If not please check the other reports on that site relating to the 545 version and create a new report if needed.

Additionally, please visit the Arch support channels (Forum/IRC/Mailing Lists/Reddit/etc) to ensure your configuration is sane. In particular with Plasma/Wayland on Nvidia, [1] is a *must*. Either way, this is not an Arch packaging issue.
