Nice! This seems to work as expected with https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1880: Some buffers now don't poll readable at first, until the GPU is done processing them. Unfortunately, as expected, without a high priority context for the compositor which can preempt client drawing, this isn't enough to prevent slow clients from slowing down the compositor as well. But it should already help for fullscreen apps where the compositor can directly scan out the client buffers at least. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | https://redhat.com Libre software enthusiast | Mesa and X developer _______________________________________________ amd-gfx mailing list amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/amd-gfx
