Performance hit when running picom on hybrid intel/nvidia gpu laptop. #1125
Comments
do you have more info, what kind of performance hit? how did you measured it? |
performance hit as in fps went from 144 to 100, i measured it with an fps counter and vsync tester and I can feel the hit in performance too. |
Can you try running picom on NVIDIA dGPU? |
works fine with nvidia, however I would like to run picom on igpu |
So you are trying to use a 5 years old integrated GPU to drive a 144 fps display? While it would be nice if picom can run smoothly on this setup (better performance is always good), I would say getting there isn't a priority right now. |
I was just trying to replicate what's possible on Windows, didn't know so much goes into it. |
I have the same issue here but during games (I'm also too braindead to know how to make picom run on Nvidia dGPU) I'm running on the xrender backend, and I have vsync enabled with unredir-if-possible=false I tried killing picom to run the games, but doing so and starting the games i play just makes my entire system freeze (but I don't know if it comes from bspwm or picom directly) |
