I used inkscape until version 1.x.x and was running very smoothly, of course with some crashing but not so often. I changed the device to a Acer Nitro 5 Notebook. And versions starting from 1.x.x as the latest version. And the version below 1 are also crashing, degraded performance, lagging, some like tearing when zooming in and out.
Beyond the Basics Inkscape very slow, crashing

Hello,
I used inkscape until version 1.x.x and was running very smoothly, of course with some crashing but not so often. I changed the device to a Acer Nitro 5 Notebook. And versions starting from 1.x.x as the latest version. And the version below 1 are also crashing, degraded performance, lagging, some like tearing when zooming in and out.
CPU: Intel Core i5-9300H 2.40 GHz
RAM: 8 GB
OS: Windows 11
NVIDIA Gefore GTX 1650
Intel UHD Graphics 630
What could i do to improve the perfomance?
One thing I've learned is that closing the Document properties window/dock should be done before editing.
Also, if working with many layers, try to hide layers not currently in use.
Stability is greatly improved in the updated v1.2.2. The first release was very unstable.
Performance is improved by Preferences>Rendering> Uncheck the dithering option.
