From NixOS Wiki
This article explains some methods for general troubleshooting. For application specific issues, please reference the particular wiki page for that program.
My system is slow!
Check your /etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix
. There probably is a line which looks something like this:
powerManagement.cpuFreqGovernor = lib.mkDefault "powersave";
Change the value inside quotation marks (in this case "powersave"
) to be "performance"
.
The new line should look like this:
powerManagement.cpuFreqGovernor = lib.mkDefault "performance";
If the line didn't exist, add it there yourself.
