SUMMARY
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start a game (so far tried various native and proton/wine titles on Steam)
in fullscreen
2. Go to meet.google.com on Chromium (or discord) and share the window of that
game
3. Go back to the game
OBSERVED RESULT
The game rendering essentially halts when using a single screen.
With dual screens, the game renders at a stuttering, very low FPS
EXPECTED RESULT
Game should run smoothly
