Hi,

If you go in "Settings", "Screen Calib.", "Scroll Speed" you can set the "Maximum FPS" value.

If I set this value to 50 I've got :

If I set this value to 100 I've got :

An old thread speaking about weird behavior of this value :

The fact is that I can't go over the 49fps but I know my hardware can do better because it used to go above this value.

That specific piece of code fixed this problem for me.

I guess it did have some sideeffects.
Will look into an alternative fix while remembering to test the maxfps feature.

Hi Ronilse!

Yes I read that.

my maxFPS is @ 99 ... I guess this is the culprit of the problem.
I have not tested lowering it yet. Although I will report back on it.

Having a too high maxfps will perhaps cause my symptoms.
The weird thing is they are only happening on a multiseat client.
