When VSYNC disabled on Nvida, high CPU usage

[StarrKiss]

Hello, I don't honestly notice vsync or that sort of tearing that much, I use this for stutter reduction and animation curves. As such, my compositor settings are set up like this:

Recently, WITHOUT UPDATING, Kwin has now been taking up upwards of 8 percent of my CPU, and I have a relatively beefy CPU. How do I fix this problem?

Can you please paste the output of

top -p `pgrep kwin_x11`

after 5 seconds? I want to see if KWin is eating one CPU core.

(P. S. it is not recommended to disable VSync)

Why is it not recomended to disable Vsync? Wouldn't that reduce load on CPU? (also, if not, what should I send the VSYNC mechanism to, as I am using a newer Nvidia driver?)

Disabling VSync:

• introduces tearing
• may increase CPU (and GPU) usage since there is no FPS limit
• defeats the main point of this project

Are you having problems with VSync on?
I am not sure what VSync mechanism to use, but try tinkering a bit, and tell me which one works best.
