so I am using fedora again, wayland on nvidia so far seems great, chrome detects it as some vmware driver and runs like poo poo, mouse lags to hell when it goes on a xorg application and the nvidia control panel doesn't open from a wayland session.

it truly is the year of linux on desktop

cool, it's getting better. when i tried in on fedora 29 when it first came out the desktop started but crashed as soon as i tried starting an app

apparently nvidia still needs to fix up something in their driver so xwayland apps work properly and a driver with those fixes is still a ways off

the reimplementation of glibc it uses optimizes disk space over everything else including any semblance of performance

conversely if you want to look good at work then move your images away from using alpine as a base and reap a nice bonus for roughly doubling performance across the board

im not doubting you, but do you have any further details? my own tests and those ive stumbled across in blog posts dont show this at all. my own tests have been with the jvm and rocksdb/postgres doing anywhere between 1k-100k rps on an 8 core vm, so not exactly "hello world" @ 1rps

mix of Java code running on openjdk 8, some consuming/producing kafka topics while others serving http. some Cassandra services in there as well

had noticed in flame graphs that a lot of time was being spent on system calls, forget which as this was a few months ago. switched from alpine/turd base images to ubuntu/glibc to see what would happen and suddenly the issue went away and overall throughout doubled across the board. we were already planning on switching to something else as a base image due to the security problems so this was enough motivation to get that move over with

so if you're seeing a lot of time on system calls or if youre interested in a system with any semblance of security policy then get off alpine

this is a great explanation in a nutshell for why wayland isn't more successful

a dude who is ideologically committed to the project, on the "happy path" with the cutting edge linux distribution, "correct" desktop environment, and open source browser, finds so many bugs it's unusable

and then he needs to be familiar with a dozen different codebases to fix any of them

Dang, I had thought wayland would be better than that by now. Especially since it is the new default in rhel8.

I have learned a valuable lesson about believing in linux desktop stuff.

It does have relatively old software, but in my experience everything in it Just Works. That’s why I’m surprised to see a semi-functional wayland as the default.
