Since now we don't set the swap throttled value based on sync-to-vblank, we can effectively remove it from Cogl. Throttling swap buffers in Cogl is as much a historical artifact as sync-to-vblank. Furthermore, it doesn't make sense to disable it on a compositor, which is the case with the embedded Cogl. In addition to that, the winsys vfunc for updating whenever swap throttling changes could also be removed, since swap throttling is always enabled now. Removing it means less code, less branches when running, and one less config option to deal with. This also removes the micro-perf test, since it doesn't make sense for the case where Cogl is embedded into the compositor. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/191 |

Mutter
Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and compositor library.
When used as a Wayland display server, it runs on top of KMS and libinput. It implements the compositor side of the Wayland core protocol as well as various protocol extensions. It also has functionality related to running X11 applications using Xwayland.
When used on top of Xorg it acts as a X11 window manager and compositing manager.
It contains functionality related to, among other things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace management, keybindings and monitor configuration.
Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork af Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.
Mutter is used by, for example, GNOME Shell, the GNOME core user interface, and by Gala, elementary OS's window manager. It can also be run standalone, using the command "mutter", but just running plain mutter is only intended for debugging purposes.
