Please note that a debug option is disabled in this package.

To disable building the docs package, set an env: _disable_docs=y.

To enable the check() process, set an env: _enable_check=y. Note that it can be problematic in some versions/setups.


If the building process is getting failed on check() like

83/114 mutter:core+mutter/backends/native / native-unit TIMEOUT 180.01s killed by signal 15 SIGTERM

then you may want to do one of these:

0) Unset an env: _enable_check=y

1) Kill your pipewire session manager; killall $(pacman -Qq pipewire-session-manager).

2) Reboot the machine.

3) Pass a variable --nocheck to makepkg (which can be passed along with --mflags first if you are using paru) to temporarily disable the check() process.

4) Add a line options=(!check) to the package's PKGBUILD file to disable the check() process.

And try again.

@NettoHikari or anyone unable to compile with the following error:

lto1: internal compiler error: bytecode stream: expected tag identifier_node instead of LTO_UNKNOWN

You need to rebuild sysprof and then try again.

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 performance patches are by default enabled.

A package for gnome-shell performance patches: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gnome-shell-performance/

@deezid really happy to know it's working well for you :D I need to push a new version of gnome-shell-performance though because one of the patches introduces a bug with the workspace switcher.

deezid commented on 2019-01-27 20:47 (UTC)

@Terence DAMN!!! This build is freaking fantastic! Kinda mind-blowing how smooth it now is. KDE feels sluggish in comparison - even XFCE does.

Gotta build Gnome-shell-performance now and see if it can speed up activities even more.

@Saren I pushed a new version, what do you think?

calindan2013 commented on 2019-01-27 14:50 (UTC)

this does not build, the packages is useless.

deezid commented on 2019-01-23 18:11 (UTC)

@Saren, thanks. Fixed it. Did you try it?

@clupenhauer, well that's unexpected. Really have to render something in Davinci Resolve, compile something and use Photoshop at the same time to make it stutter. But that's the 1080Ti probably...

There's a patch applied (281) which is supposed to fix energy saving problems on mobile GPUs. But then there's the difficult driver situation usind Bumblebee/Prime/Optimus-setups as well. Really have no clue what's going on.

@Terence I have tried ditching the old revert patch in favor of the new patch, it introduces stutters when I play rhythm games using wine...

Deleting this package maybe unnecessary because it will confuse people when this package is not found in AUR when people update the system.

Also, regardless to delete this package or not, I think it's good idea to still include the old revert patch, just let people edit PKGBUILD to choose which to use.

@deezid I see your v7b PKGBUILD. I would like to steal it from you if is doing good. :)

BTW the v7b the v7 is identical.

@deezid Xorg

deezid commented on 2019-01-21 12:47 (UTC)

@clupenhauer do you use Xorg or Wayland?

ciupenhauer commented on 2019-01-19 20:33 (UTC)

@deezid I tried it but for whatever reason those patches don't work well on my mobile card in any formula. maybe it's because of the adaptive power mode? using the cpu a bit like firing up chrome with 10 tabs or rebuilding mutter makes gnome completely unusable

I'm reverting to traditional pkgbuild for now. Thanks for all the work!

@Terence Added the latest version of the #168 patch and #216 patch to my PKGBUILD and it fixes some performance issues in other windows while 60p videos or animations are running even with the revert patch disabled. Activities zooming in and out still isn't as smooth though. Link: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/how-to-gnome-mutter-performance-patches/71989

@ciupenhauer Added a new version V6b with these other patches and the revert patch still applied - way faster - almost acceptable now - if you want to try it out.
