Environment

Custom DWM build

picom version

vgit-a8445 (Note: I have tried both with the arch AUR package and with installing this git repo directly)

Configuration:

(The picom config I have is quite long. I am not sure what would be the best way to post it here. If it is necessary, please tell me the best way to share it).

Steps of reproduction

It only happens when I leave picom running for extended periods of time (multiple days).

Expected behavior

Transitions when windows move on and off the screen should be smooth.

Current Behavior

The frame rate of these transitions are very choppy and the only way to fix is a total reboot of the computer.

Please let me know if this is due to user error or if there is any already known fix. This gets rather annoying.
