Thanks for posting this issue! I've got a couple of questions that might be relevant in debugging what's going on here.

• Is the laggy UI issue happening with the Standalone version of the plugin as well?
• Was the plugin installed using the .deb installer from the latest release, or built from source?

If you're building from source, I'd recommend first checking CMake commands. When compiling with a Makefile-based CMake generator, the CMake "configure" step also needs the additional argument -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release.

I also wonder if the plugin's using OpenGL for renderring the UI could be causing issues. We may want to try toggling this flag, and seeing if there's any difference.

I installed it using this AUR repository: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/chowkick-bin There is no standalone version , but I'll try compiling it.
