Hello,
I am testing on multiple distributions with different mesa drivers. Swap size
is 2GB to 8GB depending on the distro. Having 64GB RAM, my swap is constantly
empty.
So far the best performance I have is on ubuntu budgie 18.04 with MESA-ACO
released by Valve. I had no crashes in quite some time. But I did not have much
time to play lately, so I need more time to test.

Regarding AMDGPU-PRO, I tested on ubuntu a very long time ago, and it was quite
bad. But I think it makes sense to test and compare. I will install another
ubuntu budgie 18.04 on a separate SSD and use it with AMDGPU-PRO. and see if
the same issues are shared with AMDGPU, or not.

Thanks, and let me know how AMDGPU-PRO works on arch.
