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.

I can not compile:

EDIT: I found the solution here: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/51578

And thank you so much for this package by the way ^_^

This patch fixes the pipewire 0.1.7 problem without downgrading: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1517749

jeckhack commented on 2017-12-06 00:30 (UTC)

BTW if you have window max\unmax animation stutter after applying the workaround in question, add CLUTTER_DRIVER=gl3 to /etc/environment

For reference, see: https://developer.gnome.org/clutter/stable/running-clutter.html

From what I see, arch bumped pipewire package to 0.1.7 a few days ago and it has different file structure, i.e. /usr/include/spa/pod-parser.h is now /usr/include/spa/pod/parser.h, and other files needed to build mutter are missing too. It's just becoming a nightmare : ( ######### OK This is funny. To build mutter you have to downgrade pipewire to 0.1.6 But this isn't the end. You also have to manually create missing pod-parser.h, which is missing due to a bug in 0.1.6 as well. ( https://github.com/PipeWire/pipewire/issues/43 ) https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PipeWire/pipewire/0.1.6/spa/include/spa/pod-parser.h Copy this to /usr/include/spa/pod-parser.h after pipewire downgrade. Now mutter builds.

When installing with yaourt i've this error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'codegen' make[2]: *** [Makefile:2970: meta-dbus-idle-monitor.c] Error 1 make[2]: uscita dalla directory "/tmp/pamac-build-fabrizio/mutter-781835-workaround/src/mutter/src" make[1]: *** [Makefile:484: all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: uscita dalla directory "/tmp/pamac-build-fabrizio/mutter-781835-workaround/src/mutter" make: *** [Makefile:414: all] Error 2 ==> ERRORE: Si è verificato un errore in build(). EDIT: worked with export PYTHONPATH="/usr/share/glib-2.0" like commented previously but several GNOME packages were uninstalled and my system not start. Fixed reinstalling Gnome missing files and old mutter

@jeckhack Prismatik (monitor backlight control program which captures screen constantly) still makes gnome-shell lag without reverting the mutter commit.

jeckhack commented on 2017-10-24 01:31 (UTC)

In fact, I had time to investigate my problem a bit further, and I think that problem isn't in opengl, but in Nvidia PowerMizer and mutter affecting programs' performance when nvidia card drops frequencies on idle. So, when you run benchmark, nvidia raises its frequencies to max and you don't notice any difference. But if you run some not-so-demanding game or app (i.e. terraria) You will notice that when nvidia drops frequencies, game starts to lag. The same happens with chromium. This behavior is fixed by reverting the commit from 781835 bugreport. You can minimize this behavio without reverting commit by enabling triplebuffer in nvidia. I created a bugreport on gnome: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789186

butler360 commented on 2017-10-22 17:25 (UTC)

In case anyone else runs into this bug, I had to add 'export PYTHONPATH="/usr/share/glib-2.0"' to the PKGBUILD to get this to build. https://bugs.archlinux.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=55915 That said, I did Unigine Valley benchmark before and after installing this and it make basically zero difference. I got a score of 1312 before and 1314 after. Is there a better way to benchmark this? I'm on a GTX 970.
