Gnome / mutter triple buffering patch merged

purpleidea

Sweet! I know this patch has been cooking for a while, gosh the gitlab page takes ages to even load...

Trying to look at the source... Is the whole thing less than ~1000 LOC ???

Great news! It's fascinating to read all the effort very dedicated and talented people put into improving the software we love and use.

Kudo's to Daniel van Vugt and all the testers that pitched in time and effort.

That sounds like a great visible improvement. Gnome is polished WM.

Does KDE/Plasma offer sthg. comparable?

IIRC, KDE has had triple buffering for quite a while now. GNOME is playing catchup here.

But can we Gilette this? Quadruple buffering? 24 buffers for the smoothest display?
