| mamarley | RikMills: Is there a reason why the kwin package doesn't set CAP_SYS_NICE on kwin_wayland? If it has that cap, it can make its input and output threads realtime, which can improve performance in situations with a high system load. It seems to play a role in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=490358. | 10:34 |

| RikMills | mamarley: it should do. let me look | 10:45 |
| mamarley | It sets a cap in kwin-wayland.postinst, just not CAP_SYS_NICE. | 10:47 |
| RikMills | mamarley: oh, getting my capabilities mixed up | 10:48 |
| RikMills | mamarley: is there some upsteam docs or otherthings that say to set CAP_SYS_NICE? | 10:51 |
| mamarley | Sort of, if you look at the commit message that added src/utils/realtime.cpp: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/commit/a601a08ba7a65ebb4df46cf1f94f3fff2c0553cd | 10:52 |

| mamarley | It may also be documented elsewhere, but that's how I found it. | 10:52 |
| RikMills | mamarley: right. will fix | 10:53 |
| mamarley | Thanks! | 10:53 |
| mamarley | Overall I'm having quite a nice experience with Plasma 6 though. It is *much* more polished at 6.1 than 4 or 5 were in their .1 releases. | 10:57 |
| BluesKaj | Hi all | 11:07 |
