Bug Description
[ Impact ]
On a Raspberry Pi 400, GNOME Shell runs at 30 FPS unless the CPU is being stressed in which case it becomes a smooth 60 FPS. Seems like a frequency scaling issue.
[ Workaround ]
Add this to /etc/environment:
MUTTER_
[ Test Plan ]
1. Log into the default (Wayland) session on a Raspberry Pi 4/400.
2. Set the display resolution to 1920x1080 60Hz.
3. Drag a window around and ensure it appears smooth (60Hz).
[ Where problems could occur ]
Triple buffering affects all frame scheduling so any mistakes can cause high CPU usage, screen freezes and stutter. Try not to make mistakes.
