I should note that desktop-icons-ng living in a separate process is a very good thing. It means CPU and memory usage of the extension is clearly in a separate process from gnome-shell. There's very little desktop-icons-ng can do to slow down the shell, other than redrawing too much of the desktop

Further investigation shows that using linux-5.5 (from https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.5/) has a very positive impact on performance and gnome-session/Wayland becomes comparable with Arch and Fedora. At least this points to a definite cause, but it's somewhat of a sad outcome
