Public bug reported:

If I leave the login screen unattended the screensaver takes over. Wake
it up and there's an orange overlay screen that can be dragged with the
mouse. However it doesn't drag completely smoothly. It seems that while
the clock and date are still on-screen the drag only achieves about 30
FPS. But after the clock is dragged up off-screen the rendering becomes
smooth (60 FPS).

I find it strange that showing the clock/date text seems to impact
rendering performance so dramatically. And I wonder if it's doing
something silly like re-rendering the text on every frame...
