If you have a problem during any system update with mutter-performance & gnome-shell-performance, please install mutter & gnome-shell packages from the main repository and do full upgrade first, then build the performance packages later.

If you are using [gnome-unstable] and [extra-testing] repositories, use gnome-shell-performance-unstable


To enable a specific MR in the Merge Requests List, add an line "_merge_requests_to_use+=('<MR number>')" at the end of PKGBUILD. (Because if you edit the line directly you can be able to end up with merge conflict upon updates.)


If you are getting errors like fatal: bad revision '73e8cf32' while building this package, refer to PKGBUILD and see which patches caused this. Then, go to the related URLs, replace the commit hashes. If there are conflicts, comment out the patches.

Please notify me in comment section if this happens.


The optional patches for performance and fixes are by default enabled.

@Terence Removing !923 does not resolve issue. At the lock screen when I click "Unlock" button the button goes disabled state, appears loading indicator and nothing happens. But this error message appears in system journal: https://pastebin.com/raw/cTAdPUCx

UPD: Removing !923 probably may resolve issue. I just forgot to clean build (i am using YAY helper). I have now cleared the build and try to build package but can't. Error occurs in prepare stage, because git cherry-pick fails on line 117 due to changes in !925. Also !923 has some changes that may resolve issue https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/923#note_684927 . But... I can't build package.

I appreciate your input @glorious-yellow, I'll find time to update this package tomorrow. @kode54 @rori @muchacho this is due to !923. Remove it from the array and should be good. I'm considering using https://github.com/pp3345/gnome-with-patches for this package and mutter-performance now as it will solve a lot of problems, hence why it takes some time.

!936 with !948 yields completely smooth activities overview animation.

I found a method to get diff files from merge requests directly:

Cherry-picking 30a25112 for !925 throws "fatal: bad revision '30a25112'". I could only get !925 work by applying this patch: https://gist.github.com/glitsj16/ea360b4c24ed33fe4bf752033249d799. Also, !936 yields better performance impact when combined with !948. The latter works fine when using git_cp_by_msg '!948' "overviewControls: Use ClutterActor's translation-x".

!936 appears to make the activities overview animation a bit smoother.

It maintains a higher framerate with 15 windows open.

I am currently testing

Sorry, I'm aware of the issue but don't have time to do a proper fix... @Saren would you mind taking over a little bit please?

kode54 commented on 2020-01-18 06:17 (UTC)

I am reporting it as occurring with amdgpu. May or may not be related to using mesa-tkg-git from chaotic-aur.

muchacho commented on 2020-01-17 08:57 (UTC)

Same issue as @rori and @kode54 reported. Seems like issue exactly in gnome-shell-performance 1:3.34.3-2 and not in mutter-performance package. Rollback to gnome-shell-performance 1:3.34.3-1 solved issue for me. I also use a nvidia-390xx-dkms package. Probably this happens with nvidia blobs only, i have not tested with nouveau or other related drivers.
