So this is an interesting mystery...
Every once in a while, my Lenovo IdeaPad 1 14ALC7 (running Debian Bookworm with KDE) becomes sluggish after boot. Apps take 10x longer than usual to launch, touchpad input lags, the desktop takes ages to start. And, this is the most interesting thing, programs take MUCH more CPU time than they should. Normally htop uses about 5% of one core; in this sluggish state, it cranks away at 20-30% (and lags).
Reboot always fixes it. Never even takes more than one try. Reboot once and the laptop is good as new.
I haven't remembered to get logs or system info yet - it's somewhat hampered by the machine being barely possible to use in that state. My guess is either a kernel oops or some kind of frequency scaling issue. But I'm curious if anyone else with a recent-ish AMD system has seen this behavior and/or knows a mechanism.
