Even just moving the mouse is a little more expensive now [2]. [1] https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/349 [2] https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/283 [Test Case] Use 'top' to measure the CPU usage of the gnome-shell process while tapping Super+A repeatedly. It should be much lower with the fix than without. [Regression Potential] Low. This particular fix is tiny (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/merge_requests/236) and has been released and used in a couple of upstream gjs versions already without issue. [Other Info] The fix is already released to 19.04 as part of gjs version 1.54.2-1. And already released to 18.10 as part of gjs version 1.54.3-1~ubuntu18.10.1.
