Visual example of sluggish resizing
SUMMARY
While working on an EGL example for Smithay's client toolkit, I noticed that
resizing is not smooth.
Interestingly this sluggish resizing does not occur in Sway. This dismisses
improper protocol use as the most likely cause.
Forcing use of zink (MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=zink) causes the sluggish
resize to go away (likely because Zink is using Vulkan WSI under the hood).
I suspect this may involve KWin's Wayland implementation or how the client
behaves because running the glutin example (available here
https://github.com/rust-windowing/glutin) uses winit and has smooth resize.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Be running Plasma under Wayland
2. Run the EGL example here:
https://github.com/i509VCB/client-toolkit/tree/egl-example (cargo run
--example=egl --features="wayland-backend/client_system")
3. Try resizing the window
4. Window resizes sluggishly.
OBSERVED RESULT
Resizing is sluggish.
EXPECTED RESULT
Resizing should be smooth.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.98.0
Qt Version: 5.15.6
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Issue is reproducible on both of my machines (AMD and Intel graphics)
Multiple attachments don't seem to be allowed, here is the first 300 ish lines
of WAYLAND_DEBUG that includes the protocol logs while resizing the window
