CS2 Native Wayland mouse slowdown with tearing disabled

[fxzzi]

A bit of a weird problem here. When playing CS2 with native wayland, and tearing disabled, the game is extremely choppy and mouse input is slowed down considerably. The video below is unable to showcase the choppiness issue, however the mouse slowdown is very apparent. Tearing is enabled in this clip - when I trigger a notification you can immediately see the circles I am making in game become much smaller. This is not me changing how I am moving the mouse.

This behaviour is not exhibited when running the game through xwayland. Whilst yes I can feel a difference when the notification shows up (as tearing de-activates), it is not anywhere near to the side effects shown in the above video. I tried native resolution too without success.

launchopts:

OBS_VKCAPTURE=1 SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER=wayland SDL_AUDIO_DRIVER=pipewire %command% -w 1920 -h 1440 -noreflex

I am guessing it's the game's fault?

I have my doubts, same thing occurs with Minecraft 1.21 native wayland, but instead of feeling slower when tearing de-activates it actually feels faster

well I cant repro

rip, not sure why it's happening then tbh. Happens on cs source too.

figured it out. long story short i recently started tagging all my games with content type game, and the option no_break_fs_vrr triggers by default with content type game. The issue was then that VRR was running at half my fps, i.e. on screen display fps counter shows half of my fps in game.

so, this is a dupe of #8582 which has been closed. Same symptoms, and fixed with tearing enabled for some reason
