We start by running <code>swaymsg output DP-1 max_render_time 1</code>. If there is frame dropping, increase the value of <code>max_render_time</code> by 1 and try again until frame dropping stops. This is the optimal setting for <code>max_render_time</code>. Once you find this value, open up your sway config file (usually <code>~/.config/sway/config</code>), and add the line <code>output DP-1 max_render_time t</code>, with <code>t</code> replaced by the optimal value obtained previously. | We start by running <code>swaymsg output DP-1 max_render_time 1</code>.
