It seems like compositing on KDE + x.org and xfce was enabled, hence the slightly lower performance. Don't know if it's possible on xfce, but on KDE you can disable the compositor via Alt + Shift + F12 keyboard shortcut.
I tested myself Dirt Rally (its built in benchmark) on KDE 5.22.5 + x.org and also on Gnome 41 + Wayland. The performance was identical.

Your/our experience with XWayland. Indeed some games have problems, but it's not pure Wayland experience.

I would be really interested in data of a WLROOTS based wayland compositor (i.e. sway)

Was compositing enabled in XFCE - that is the question. It may incur quite a serious performance loss.

If only Michael could test games with native wayland support, like dota 2 on opengl. Just add SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland at the launch options.
