Comment 14 for bug 1690719

When displaying an animation using Mutter on Wayland, the pointer appears to move 'jerkey', and the movements are inaccurate.

Rtcm pointed out to me, in IRC, that this might be because on Wayland, Mutter does the mouse tracking, as opposed to X on X. Displaying an animation can use up quite some power, and because of this, Mutter cannot poll the mouse in time.

Examples of animations where this occurs, is the circle animation when moving the mouse to the screen corner, to go in overview mode, and hovering over an application icon in the overview mode.

While this bug isn't a breaking one, it makes it impossible to have a smooth experience on a regular consumer machine.
