...uld be copied from frontbuffer to backbuffer. Since region going to be painted this time is known, it can be substracted from last painted region. Thus only parts that were painted in previous pass and aren't going to be repainted, are copied saving expensive pixel copy operations. Since glxCopySubBufferMESA does only implement copy-from-backbuffer (correct me if I'm wrong) it is no longer needed (remove-copySubBuffer.patch). I've been using this a quite long time and it works generally well. Problem arises only when a plugin paints outside of the given region. For example screenshot (q...

I understand what it does for platforms that only has one or the other set of functions of course, but does it actually make a difference for regular old computers where things have just always worked? 3.

...as the blur plugin and that only took me a day or two[3]. The three biggest changes to rendering were 1. The move to triangle-based meshes as opposed to relying on quads. 2. The move from assembly fragment programs to GLSL. 3. The move to using SwapBuffers (with GLX_EXT_buffer_age) as opposed to CopySubBuffer. 1 & 2 are API-incompatible changes. 3 is a change that silently exposes bugs in existing plugins, usually relating to a failure to indicate update regions on the screen. In terms of Wayland, I'd honestly recommend look into using something like libweston and putting a "compiz plugin...

This is a somewhat controversial subject which I only reluctantly bring up. I honestly believe that open discussion is the only way to run a project, and I apologize in advance if I offend anyone. I got what should have been an easy question on #compiz a few days ago. A user came in and asked "What version do you recommend I use?". I honestly didn't know what to say. >From a

Add swapbuffers and vsync_wait options Some drivers will automatically prevent tearing when swapbuffers or copysubbuffer is called, and will throttle drawing at that time as well (usually to the refresh rate); the --no-wait option can be used in that case.
