is this new? did this happen with older nvidia drivers?
It seems recent, but I'm not exactly sure when it first occurred, a few weeks ago, a few months at most I'd say.
@absolutelynothelix has a nvidia GPU and is able to reproduce this.
nvidia's glXWaitVideoSyncSGI has awful behavior when screen is off, and has caused us many headaches. maybe we should let them know.
Platform
Arch Linux x86-64, up to date.
GPU, drivers, and screen setup
NVidia GTX 980, with nvidia-dkms 555.58.02-1
Environment
Xmonad
picom version
~/.config/picom/picom.conf
:Steps of reproduction
xset dpms force off
(my lock screen does this)Expected behavior
CPU usage should remain low, or lower than when screens are active.
Current Behavior
CPU usage is high when screens are off, and goes back to normal when screens are active.
