Bug ID: 485927
Summary: Animations in KDE Plasma 6.0.4 seem to be capped at
60hz
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.0.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: "Manage Desktop and Panels" window

Showing the low refresh rate animations and scrolling.
Environment:
Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.4
Application: KDE Discover
KDE Frameworks: 6.1.0
Kernel Version: 6.8.7-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Qt Version: 6.7.0
Windowing System: Wayland
CPU: Ryzen 7 5700
GPU: RX 6700XT
RAM: 32GB DDR4
SUMMARY
When using the overview animations, the window snapping animations, or
scrolling in system settings, the frame rate seems to be capped at 60hz, even
though I have the refresh rate set to that of my monitor, 165hz. Additionally,
when scrolling in system settings the scrolling on the sidebar suddenly becomes
a higher refresh rate when the "Colors and Themes" option is clicked.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Using a high refresh rate monitor, set the refresh rate of plasmashell to
the highest refresh rate.
2. To find the scrolling issue, open system settings, and start scrolling on
the sidebar, then click Colors and Themes, and back to the main menu, then
start scrolling again, it becomes smooth.
3. Either open the overview or snap a window to the side to see how stuttery
they look compared to the same animations in either GNOME or Windows 10/11.
OBSERVED RESULT
Animations that are for some reason capped at 60hz.
EXPECTED RESULT
The animations should happen at the set refresh rate.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The animations all appear to be smoother on x11 then wayland, which is odd,
because everything else is smoother on wayland for me.
