When GSP firmware is enabled on Wayland session, scrolling in all browsers (Google Chrome, Brave-chromium based, Firefox) has stuttering and generally low fps. (My monitor has 170Hz and the scrolling is dropping down to around 90-100FPS) (Everything is recorded and visible on the videos, please make sure to watch them, to fully understand the problem).
Tested on:
*open-module driver with GSP ON (since I can’t disable GSP with open module) (video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EadKGwoSpO8)
*proprietary driver with GSP ON (video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RNl45OVw_g)
*proprietary driver with GSP OFF (video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6x-uB-iZrOA)
WIth open-module driver, and proprietary driver with GSP ON, there is stuttering, and low fps when scrolling in all 3 browsers. HOWEVER, when at the same time OBS is launched and is actively recording (or other screen capturing software), the scrolling becomes almost perfect again. And as soon, as the recording is stopped, it begins to stutter again.
With proprietary driver with GSP OFF, scrolling is almost perfect no matter if recording with OBS or not.
