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 mutter-performance-unstable


The default patch list includes "Dynamic triple buffering(!1441)", "text-input-v1(!3751)".

Latest Dynamic triple buffering patch has several included MRs from the main development branch to achieve maximum performance.


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.)

You can see some patches' git history here: https://git.saltyming.net/sungmg/mutter-performance-source/

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.

@bobekmark: you might want to edit the PKGBUILD and comment some commits to figure out what produces this issue and then report it to its related.

@Terence Hmmm, interenting, now it's install itself, but when I reboot my pc, it has only black screen with an X. (CTRL+ALT+F2 , than install "stock" mutter is can solve the problem, but I can't boot my PC with This AUR :\ )

@bobekmark Thanks for the report, I updated the commits, please try again.

@Saren Thanks!

Saren commented on 2018-10-02 15:17 (UTC)

@Terence added, check it out~

Terence commented on 2018-10-02 15:17 (UTC)

@Saren no problem! Yes indeed, I check almost everyday gitlab for new interesting commits to include and test them ^^. If you don't see any problem, I'd do the same for gnome-shell-performance.

Saren commented on 2018-10-02 15:08 (UTC)

@terence thanks for notifying! Would you be interested becoming a co-maintainer?

jc-aur commented on 2018-10-02 14:23 (UTC)

@terence ah, totally missed it, thanks!
