Just when there's an article to be fairly positive about overall, with performance being relatively even (especially if you take into account default software compositing as being a likely reason for MATE's lesser showing - I can't wait for that to be ported to Wayland), people still find a reason to bitch and get all trolly. I swear some of the people around here need a shrink for their issues.

I think this points to something important, though: what Mutter is doing is probably entirely sane, and the reactions of some of the forum-dwellers here might not be.

As a regular CSGO player, I really wish Mutter would let me increase the timeout before bringing up the crashed app window without having to compile from source. That should be a tweak tool or dconf setting.

Not actually a mutter bug. The SDL apps aren't responding to pings from Mutter.

Go actually use Gnome 3 and fire up CS:GO. When the annoying "OH NOES I THINK THIS HAS CRASHEDED" popup comes up, click the wait option, and let the game load.
Bam. You get good performance. Certainly better than the 15fps displayed here.
Also, troll harder, nub.

@Michael: First page, second image: "KDE Frameworks 5" is not a desktop, just libraries. It wouldn't hurt to explicitly state the *full* KDE Plasma version instead.

I've been using Kubuntu for ages, but at home I've switched to KDE Neon. It gets the latest KDE (and more importantly Qt) much faster. On the other hand, it only tracks LTS releases, so you need PPAs to stay up to date with other things.

Since people said KDE is a piece of garbage, then would like to know the results the day when it will rocks.
In the years I've been using KDE it had many problems, but slowness was never one of them. At least not to me.
