Description

Created attachment 9320 neofetch

I generally use Linux Mint XFCE with the compton compositor. I decided to test the new 4.14 xfwm4 compositor instead of compton. My CPU usage for the same video went from 16% to 40%. Went back to compton due to increase. Attached is a neofetch of my hardware and system.
