1. # Close the Looking Glass client.2. # Run <code>swaymsg 'for_window [app_id="looking-glass-client"] max_render_time 1'</code>.3. # Run the Looking Glass client with the <code>win:showFPS win:jitRender</code> option. If you have multiple monitors, you want to move to window to the monitor with the highest resolution.4. # If the FPS value displayed is lower than the screen refresh rate, close the client and restart from step 2, but increment the value of <code>max_render_time</code> by 1.5. # Once this is done, open up your sway config file (usually <code>~/.config/sway/config</code>), and add the line <code>for_window [app_id="looking-glass-client"] 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>. 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.
=== Looking Glass latency tuning (B5-and later only) ===
Tuning the latency for Looking Glass follows a very similar process:
