I’ve noticed significant performance degradation in World of Warcraft and League of Legends. Used Lutrix to start them. FPS in those games visually dropped to 3-5. While on Windows there was smooth 60+ frames. I’ve tried that about 3 or 4 years ago.
I’m using Linux for work. At home, I have Windows on my desktop, I mainly use it to play games.
One day I’ve tried to move to Linux for my home system, but it came out that games work slower because of DirectX adaptation layer. And most of the games can only work with DX.
Which adds up to 180%. And that is all you need to know about deadlines.
It works fine with my Cinnamon window manager. So the bug could be in Firefox, in your WM, in both, or more likely in the integration of two, as a side effect, which why I’ve said “on the edge”. It’s nearly impossible to test your software with every combination of a system. So the solution here to file an issue both for WM and Firefox and hope someone from either communities will solve it. Or just get another browser or WM.
Look like a bug on the edge of WM/App
I wonder if you deem Firefox buggy or having not enough features?
Using Firefox since it came out and never experienced any troubles.
Rejoice. I’ve installed Arch on my home PC a few days ago. Haven’t booted Windows since.
