so im not sure if this is update related or storage related. somewhere online told me to check ‘page faults’ and theyre at 16998 MINFL and 114 MAJFL. i ran out of storage on my ssd so i clesred half of it by deleting timeshift snapshots (and disabled it). it’s still running like a slug. once an application is open, it’s fine. but beforehand? it takes 20 seconds to open vlc. loading a new .mp3 audio for vlc takes maybe 10 or so. it started before the update when i totallt ran our of stroage so i assume it’s that. im confused as to if it’s some process stealing resources.

      what command would you use to trim on linux mint, the drive isnt dying to my knowledge. i just ran smartctl and it says i have 0 unallocated nvm capacity?
