SUMMARY
Regression hardware cursor isn't staying smooth under extreme load
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Easiest test compositor-killer
OBSERVED RESULT
Cursor performance degrades under high usage.
EXPECTED RESULT
Smooth cursor always
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.20.0
Qt Version: 6.10.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Regression alert The hardware cursor has, at some point during Plasma 6.5.x or
maybe with Qt 6.10.x, become sluggish again. It's not as bad as when the
hardware cursor wasn't a thing; luckily, it didn't go back to being that bad.
Anyways, I tested a live plasma ISO with an older version of plasma, plasma
6.3.5 using compositor-killer and the mouse movement is buttery smooth with no
stutter/sluggish movement whatsoever.
Afterward I tested compositor-killer in the Gnome desktop, and it gives the
same result as the old Plasma 6.3.5 test: the cursor is also buttery smooth
with no lag whatsoever.
So yep, there's 100% a cursor smoothness regression in the latest Plasma.
