Bug 498677

SUMMARY
I've been trying to find out the reason why GPU usage are low in Wayland compared to X11, not matter what settings and environment variables you set. Among other issues related to VRR/Gsync.

https://discuss.kde.org/t/low-gpu-usage-in-wayland/28297

I recently found a few things that could related to all this in some way and could be a bug. 

Confirmation was done through the command reported by another person, and I got the same results here with all settings from the UI and through environments disabling vsync/vrr/triple buffer and everything else that is possible.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/drm_info
2. Type: drm_info | grep VRR_ENABLED

OBSERVED RESULT
│   │       ├───"VRR_ENABLED": range [0, 1] = 0
│   │       ├───"VRR_ENABLED": range [0, 1] = 0
│   │       ├───"VRR_ENABLED": range [0, 1] = 0
│           ├───"VRR_ENABLED": range [0, 1] = 0

EXPECTED RESULT
To not be enabled, all everything else are disabled.
