After updating to GNOME 3.24 yesterday my graphical performance has been noticeably choppy, particularly when opening the activities overview and switching between workspaces, scrolling in Chromium also causes framerate drops. I am using the Nvidia proprietary driver on a GTX 960 and this issue affects both Wayland and Xorg. Any suggestions for a fix would be greatly appreciated.

I thought no one would write about it.

1. Download 2 files to one dir (PKGBUILD revert.patch)
2. Run in terminal
makepkg -i
3. Restart GNOME Shell --- Alt+F2 + r
Do you still see the lags?

I filed an upstream bug report https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781835 and mentioned that reverting the patch helps.
I also mentioned this to a gnome developer a month ago. He basically just agreed that this is not a good thing.
I asked a nvidia developer as well. He said it is due to the overhead of excessive xlib calls that the function introduces.

@thetazerlaser would you mind posting in the upstream report that revert.patch helped? More people increases the chance Gnome developers may take a look.
