--- Comment #1 from Buovjaga <[email protected]> ---
It doesn't mean what you think it means. I have to admit that we don't document
this checkbox very well. The extended tooltip says "Directly accesses hardware
features of the graphical display adapter to improve the screen display".

>From what I can gather, on Linux it takes care of antialiasing, meaning that
lines are not pixely and blocky, but smooth.

A newer development that actually makes wider use of the GPU is the integrated
Skia graphics engine. It already works on Windows, macOS and the fallback x11
backend on Linux, but work still needs to be done for gtk3/4 and kf5 (KDE) UIs.

Doing some web searches, it seems Skia can be built for Linux ARM, so things
will eventually fall into place regarding this.

Anyway, do you still see the slowness with LibreOffice 7.3?
Which Linux distribution are you using?

Please copy and paste here the contents of your Help - About. This allows us to
know more about your system.

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided the information.
