Hi, I'm the co-maintainer of the package.

Unfortunately, my laptop's gpu died a few days ago. So I cannot bring lots of changes to the package. The only thing I can do right now is upgrading the package along with mr1441 only.

Sorry for the situation and I hope you understand it. If you want to be a co-maintainer of this package, please contact fiestalake@disroot.org and/or the other maintainers. Thanks.

@tannisroot sorry, just got back home. Yes, I have a Logitech G502, if I recall right it has 1000Hz polling rate, why? Just for curiosity sake, I disconnected it, used the mouse pad from the laptop and suddenly the experience was a lot better, why is so?

@jc-aur do you happen to have a mouse with 1000hz polling rate?

@Vash63 @glorious-yellow I'm experiencing the same performance as @tannisroot, everything works buttery-smooth but moving windows around, especially when moving a window between monitors. I'm running a Nvidia GTX 980M with the latest driver, running on Xorg

glorious-yellow commented on 2018-10-14 19:32 (UTC)

@Vash63 Interesting, for me only maximize/minimize animations are laggy

Follow up to @tannisroot's comment, was debugging this with him in discord while we were testing this patch set. It seems to be commit 0feecfe8 causing the problems - after I commented that out the performance problems went away.

Specifically, the performance seemed to get very very bad if two large windows were on top of each other while you moved them. Single digit framerates.

Otherwise, this package is awesome and once I disabled that patch it's noticeably smoother than stock mutter.

I've tried this and everything is buttery smooth, except for moving windows around. When I move them it is very, very laggy. Any idea why? I have GTX 1070 and use 396.54.09 driver.

@Saren After you did disabled the patch, it worked now. I mean, you really do see the difference in smoothness, responses.. nice work, much appreciated. :D

@jc-aur Done, thanks for suggesting that.

@glorious-yellow I will see what I can do at next package update.

Hi Saren, thanks for your work. Side note: glorious-yellow is right.

I've just installed this patched mutter and i'm impressed. i can see animation that i've never seen!! (nvidia blob here) I was not aware that option buttons had a transition animation...

a curiosity: i've noticed a new little gap in shell theme (all themes, standard included) in the right upper corner. a screenshot: https://paste.pics/3WDN7

Is this for me only?
