Really cool research. Overall, X11 still wins compared to Wayland(kwin) but only by 0.14 - 0.22 ms. The really bad performance hit is from XWayland which added 3.13 ms.

Whenever US players find themselves on one of the AU hosted World of Warcraft servers with 200ms latency they can't stop complaining about how awful the game is to play.

When I find myself on servers like that in any game I pretend I'm training for operating a Martian Rover and see it as an extra challenge. I just hope the ping in consistent.
