The autopkgtest regressions have been resolved. See LP: #1998286 comment 10 for some comments about it.
I installed mutter 42.9-0ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS with about 6 GB of RAM. Before the update, my memory went from about 20% to 50% with the test case and stayed there. After the update, memory went up to about 35% with the test case. This is a significant improvement in used memory; therefore I consider this bugfix verified. ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-jammy ** Tags added: verification-done verification-done-jammy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1985089 Title: Resizing two edge tiled windows is laggy Status in Mutter: Fix Released Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in mutter source package in Jammy: Fix Committed Bug description: Impact ------ Mutter 42.9 includes a fix for tiled window resizing. Before the fix, window resizing could use very large amounts of memory and be laggy. Test Case --------- 0. Install the updated mutter packages. Log out then log back in. 1. Open System Monitor. Tile it to the Left. 2. Open a Terminal. Tile it to the right. 3. Click the Resources tab in System Monitor. 3. Right-click the System Monitor in the headerbar and click Resize. 4. Move your mouse left and right to resize the window. 5. The memory should not dramatically spike higher as seen in the System Monitor's Resources tab. What Could Go Wrong ------------------- See the master mutter 42.9 bug LP: #1998286 Original Bug Report ------------------- Just to report an issue that other people have reported to GNOME and in Reddit, that seems to also affect Ubuntu 22.04. If you snap 2 windows side-by-side in Wayland and then try to resize them, it's very slow and uses a lot of memory.
