Title:
  [raspi] GNOME Shell runs at 30 FPS unless the CPU is being stressed

Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in mutter source package in Lunar:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  On a Raspberry Pi 400, GNOME Shell runs at 30 FPS unless the CPU is
  being stressed in which case it becomes a smooth 60 FPS. Seems like a
  frequency scaling issue.

  [ Workaround ]

  Add this to /etc/environment:

    MUTTER_DEBUG_TRIPLE_BUFFERING=always

  [ Test Plan ]

  1. Log into the default (Wayland) session on a Raspberry Pi 4/400.

  2. Set the display resolution to 1920x1080 60Hz.

  3. Drag a window around and ensure it appears smooth (60Hz).

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  Triple buffering affects all frame scheduling so any mistakes can
  cause high CPU usage, screen freezes and stutter. Try not to make
  mistakes.
