Overview not closing bug fixed (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/63826) fixed as of gnome-shell-performance 3.34.0+148+g506b75fc7-1
Shell crash (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1841794) caused by dash-to-dock is also fixed from mutter-performance 3.34.0+30+gb5775e3d8-1
Most of your favorite extensions should be compatible or have update (in their repos). The only extension not working for me is "Panel OSD".
@Terence Most of the pull requests included in this package have already been merged into 3.34. Of course, you don't have to update the script for that until 3.34 is in the stable repositories.
@Saren Thanks but yeah I don't get why this was flagged out-of-date when it's still in the arch testing repo...
Current PKGBUILD so far @Terence https://gist.github.com/Saren-Arterius/5d662d6a4fcbaccc846627701e615dee
Stopped by
Run-time dependency sysprof-capture-3 found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)
meson.build:275:2: ERROR: Dependency "sysprof-capture-3" not found, tried pkgconfig and cmake
Just wait https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/mutter/ bumped to 3.34 first
@TheAifam5 I figured out what caused the problem, please update and try again. @sotirizzz Thanks, it's now disabled by default.
@TheAifam5 experienced the same on my Nvidia system, amdgpu seemed fine but I guess I'll have to test on both each time before pushing changes... I'll figure out what exactly causes that and disable IT when I'm back home today.
Last changes are destructive for me. On 3x4k monitors connected like: [monitor1] - [monitor2] - [laptop3], the third's background is split to half and after a while everything freezes. At the start, the window with small header are unable to move, but with the windows with big header are movable. Also the windows can't be resized for some reason. Trying do the following things, slowly freezes the whole system, except the window's content. The mutter package from Arch is working correctly. I tried to find any logs but there is none or I couldn't find any.
"Implement clipboard manager" causes crashes in wayland session for me when trying to drag a folder/file in nautilus or a tab in firefox (with wayland as backend)
"Geometric (OpenGL-less) picking" hashes updated
New hashes are 836b420a^..b10f82d3
@Terence haha it's just a quick & dirty & selfish hack to save me from editing PKGBUILD each time.
You may write a prompt for that if you want, but that would break somebody's automated process too.

If you have a problem during any system update with
mutter-performance&gnome-shell-performance, please installmutter&gnome-shellpackages from the main repository and do full upgrade first, then build the performance packages later.If you are using [gnome-unstable] and [extra-testing] repositories, use mutter-performance-unstable
The default patch list includes "Dynamic triple buffering(!1441)", "text-input-v1(!3751)".
Latest Dynamic triple buffering patch has several included MRs from the main development branch to achieve maximum performance.
To enable a specific MR in the Merge Requests List, add an line "_merge_requests_to_use+=('<MR number>')" at the end of PKGBUILD. (Because if you edit the line directly you can be able to end up with merge conflict upon updates.)
You can see some patches' git history here: https://git.saltyming.net/sungmg/mutter-performance-source/

If you are getting errors like
fatal: bad revision '73e8cf32'while building this package, refer to PKGBUILD and see which patches caused this. Then, go to the related URLs, replace the commit hashes. If there are conflicts, comment out the patches.Please notify me in comment section if this happens.
The optional performance patches are by default enabled.
