I forgot to mention that resolution is 3000x2000, it's a hidpi screen with 2x scaling factor. Of course, that makes things harder but, as I said, it's working pretty well in Wayland 3.36 on Arch and Fedora.

On this system animations should be smooth and at 60fps, but this is not always the case. The applications animation (the icons coming from the bottom left) is specially stuttery most of the time. Sometimes it is buttery smooth, but most of the times it is not. It is difficult to pinpoint when. Some exploration that may help to find the issue: * I also have a desktop with 20.04 and a Nvidia 750ti and it seems to be much smoother. This seems to indicate that the problem is somehow related to the Intel iGPU. * Animations seem smoother under Wayland. But, because of other limitations, I am staying on Xorg for now. * The application animation is super stuttery the first time it is opened in a session. It gets slowly better with subsequent uses, although never totally smooth. " The animation is noticeably more stuttery if it opens the “All” applications tab instead of “Frequent” apps. Maybe the number of apps (icons) is a factor? * Vanilla gnome-session seems to be smoother. Maybe the problem is related to Dash-to-dock or another Ubuntu extension? (In my ubuntu session only default extensions are enabled). These datapoints are mainly subjective as I have no means of properly measure animations performance. Don't get my wrong, 20.04 is a clear improvement over 18.04. But it seems there is some room for improvement at least in this hardware.
