Interesting results, in a nutshell it seems like Wayland/Xwayland performance on both nVidia and AMD wins slightly more than it loses. Once VRR is live in nVidia 545 series driver, for 3D games, Wayland is looking to deliver a great experience. Performance when Wine’s Wayland code is ready to mainline will be very interesting given that Xwayland needs will be negated at that point.

For some reason, I can’t get my Nvidia proprietary driver to work on Wayland. It automatically switches to software rendering whenever I enable Wayland. It works perfectly on Xorg.
