> Another performance patch got in. Yay.
Wow, patch description sounds simple but effective :-) That's surprising that wasn't the default behaviour !

If I get things right, this MR is mostly about Wayland (see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutte...68#note_530925), but could be wrong here. In that case, fullscreen games would be affected as they don't yet get unredirected there. Although there's ongoing work by Jonas Adahl to make it work under Wayland, which might even land for 3.34 (the concept is quite different, though. The term 'unredirect' doesn't really apply. And event delivery would still be handled by the compositor, so this MR would still apply there).Last edited by Britoid; 01 July 2019, 10:39 AM.

Prolific GNOME contributor Daniel Van Vugt of Canonical working to optimize the desktop stack for Ubuntu continues his great upstream-focused work on enhancing the performance of various key components. This past week he posted a new merge request that seeks to lower the input latency further for the Mutter compositor / window manager...
