Public bug reported:
[Impact]
gnome-shell visible latency is very high with Xorg 2:1.20.4-1ubuntu1.
And reinstalling the previous version (2:1.20.3-1ubuntu1) seems to fix
it.
[Test Case]
1. Log into a gnome-shell Xorg session ("Ubuntu").
2. Drag a window around in circles by its titlebar.
Expected: The mouse pointer to be somewhere near the titlebar
Observed: The mouse pointer is a long way away.
[Other Info]
Crucially, my patches to mutter's clutter-stage-cogl.c no longer have
any effect when this Xorg regression is present. So I can tell the
problem is related to some missing/broken X11 feature that is causing
the mutter master clock to fall back to its secondary vsync method (no
sync at all, just swapbuffers till they're all full, so typically quad-
buffering).
[Workarounds]
* Install Xorg 2:1.20.3-1ubuntu1 instead; or
* Use Wayland sessions only.
