<pre>In case it is relevant, I also made some tests with gnome shell perf tool.
Here are the results before the commit:

Although 30fps may sound good, Gnome often has performance hits and animations
drop below 15fps.
It feels really slow compared to the previous situation : Gnome was dropping
from 60fps to ~30fps.
I also want to correct my <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=100617#c4">comment 4</a> about Wayland, it was not 60fps with a
single Window. The animations look the same as Xorg.</pre>
