I don't know if it is related with what is happening to me, but all my drag actions becomes slow / frozen. It appears that the window is updated internally for each the way the mouse taked (when I am dragging).

It happens only when I have a lot of things opened. Specially if that things uses 3D acceleration (it can be vulkan or OpenGL that does not matter I already tested it).

I monitored the system usage and the CPU is very low usage and the GPU too (3% to 7% CPU and 20% to 33% GPU). But, the system load becomes high (more than 1.0) when I try to drag some window.
When I stop of trying to drag the system load slowly lowers.

I recorded a video with OBS and the recording freezes too in the same moments so It appears to be related with image drawing when using input on a window manager.

It happens too on Budgie Desktop.

The action drains CPU usage (one core almost). I mean, when I drag a window slowy (a terminal with htop running) I can view a very high CPU usage in that moment (And I can ear the CPU fan running faster too).

So it is some function that stay on some loop of some kind related with the drag action only draining CPU instead of waiting and let other tasks to run.

My system information:
intel_iommu=off
Linux 5.15.0-52-generic
NVIDIA 520.56.06
Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS
