            Bug ID: 481804
           Summary: Dolphin uses CPU when its window is minimized, when as
                    far as I know, it shouldn't be doing anything.
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 23.08.5
          Platform: Arch Linux
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
I noticed that my laptop was getting hot when it shouldn't have been doing
anything. After looking at htop, I found that it was Dolphin using a single
core at 100%. I had launched Dolphin a while ago and had minimized the window
when I was done using it. It starts happening not long after I launch it.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Dolphin.
2. Open a process monitor and observe.

OBSERVED RESULT
My laptop gets hot and the fan spins up.

EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin's process should be sleeping when I'm not interacting with the app.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.10
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0
Qt Version: 5.15.12
Linux: 6.7.4-arch1-1 (not sure this one is relevant)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I'm not entirely sure that Dolphin is not actually meant to be doing something.
If that's the case, then I'm sorry I've wasted some of your time.
