Actually for applications that do full-screen GL, expect them to work
faster in Wayland/Weston, as it can use the application surface as the
output and just flip buffers - no compositing required.

For Wine, you'd have to speak to the Wine maintainers as whether they
do a Wayland port or Xwayland is required.  Again, xwayland isn't the
performance hit you'd expect from a nested environment.
