Silly me. That's probably correct. By making the Xmir process super-busy
with interval 0, the X client will get less CPU and GPU time.

Kind of the opposite of what you might expect:
$ Xmir --desktop_file_hint=unity8 -sw &
$ glxgears
13339 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2667.750 FPS
13619 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2723.752 FPS
13653 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2730.425 FPS
$ env MIR_CLIENT_FORCE_SWAP_INTERVAL=0 Xmir --desktop_file_hint=unity8 -sw
$ glxgears
3092 frames in 5.0 seconds = 618.255 FPS
3185 frames in 5.0 seconds = 636.933 FPS
3014 frames in 5.0 seconds = 602.666 FPS
