--- Comment #18 from Michael Marley <mich...@michaelmarley.com> ---
I just made a startling discovery.  The kwin packaging for Debian/Ubuntu (which
I had been using all along) doesn't set CAP_SYS_NICE on kwin_wayland, so the
attempt to set a higher priority for the input and output threads was of course
failing.  Setting CAP_SYS_NICE manually alone makes a minor difference, but
when combined with increasing the safetyMargin to 3000us, it almost entirely
stops the frame dropping.

I know one of the maintainers, so I'm going to ask him why CAP_SYS_NICE isn't
set.
