Gnome Shell and friends:
- Performance testing to try and stop upstream regressing again.
- Spent a day with a 4K monitor and good/bad news: gnome-shell performance at 4K with Intel® HD Graphics 630 is quite bad. So that will be another goal this cycle…
- Got CI passing on the reopened mouse latency performance fix.
- Proposed a new fix for randomly high latency on Nvidia (or VMs) with Xorg. That replaces last week’s attempt.
- Rewrote the desktop icons fade fix to resolve another bug.
- Profiling and researching, trying to fix long blocking calls experienced with the Nvidia driver.
Housekeeping:
- Still lots of bug traffic. Hours spent triaging, but it is slowly dropping back to normal.
