It happens to me on a 1080p laptop screen (14" inch) with rather capable hardware (Core i7 HQ, 16 GBs of RAM, SSD ... etc). So, it doesn't only happen for high-resolution big screens.

Since I lost my laptop batter, and I had to shutdown the computer more often (instead of just suspending it) .. I started to notice the issue appears less and less, which confirms that GNOME slows down over time (memory leak maybe?).
