Hello Guix!

After GNOME 3.30 update (even after 3.32 update), I started facingdesktop stuttering.
50% of the time, when I play videos in mpv, the video along with wholedesktop system (screen, windows, menus etc.) starts to stutter. 100% ofthe time, when I stream videos in ungoogled-chromium, he video alongwith whole desktop system (screen, windows, menus etc.) starts tostutter. During stuttering, I also noticed in system monitor, thatprocesses ".gnome-shell-ca", ".gnome-shell-r" and ".gnome-system-m"intermittently hitting 100% CPU.
The above issues does not happen when I log-in as i3-wm session viagdm. They only happen inside gnome session.
Regards,RG.

I forgot to mention how to reproduce the issue.
1) Set up Guix System using a system configuration similar to https://bin.disroot.org/?510c2d858eb869e9#Ef9L5uG3TBiGspwp1X3kebFSoqPWi5XSvzNdisD3V8QY2) Login into gnome-session via gdm.3) Install and open ungoogled-chromium.4) Visit for example https://einthusan.ca(can be accessed only fromCA, so may need a VPN server at CA) --> Movies --> Any Language --> AnyMovie. Play the video.5) You will see desktop stuttering right away or within few minutes.6) Reboot system.7) Login into i3-wm session via gdm.8) Repeat step 3 and 4. You will not encounter desktop stuttering.
Regards,RG.

Is this still an issue on master? It's been some time since youroriginal report, and IIUC many improvements were made to the GNOMEdesktop.
Thank you!
