I'd like to resolve any confusion from the last 10 comments or so. This bug is only for people who have "MetaSyncRing" messages in their system log:
journalctl -b0 | grep MetaSyncRing like: Window manager warning: MetaSyncRing: Sync object is not ready -- were events handled properly? Window manager warning: MetaSyncRing: Sync object is not ready -- were events handled properly? Window manager warning: MetaSyncRing: Sync object is not ready -- were events handled properly? Window manager warning: MetaSyncRing: Too many reboots -- disabling If you don't have any MetaSyncRing messages then please open new bugs. ** Summary changed: - Input lag or freezes on Nvidia desktops with X11 + Input lag or freezes on Nvidia desktops with X11 after logging "MetaSyncRing: Sync object is not ready -- were events handled properly?" ** Description changed: [ Impact ] Input or the entire screen may freeze at times on systems using the Nvidia Xorg driver with GNOME. [ Test Plan ] 0. Set up a desktop with Nvidia driver 545 or 550. 1. Log into Ubuntu, ensuring it's a Xorg session. 2. Open a Terminal, resize it vigorously, and type several lines of text. - 3.

[ Original Description ] There is a noticeable delay in input while using the native terminal. I belive it was caused by a recent software update, as this issue is relatively new.
