Degraded gaming performance after waking from sleep. (self.linux_gaming)

Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.9.0
Qt Version: 6.8.1
Kernel Version: 6.12.7-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090/PCIe/SSE2
GPU DRIVER: 565.77

Pretty straight forward issue.
Rocket League for example: Butter smooth game play before sleep. After sleep mild to moderate stuttering.

  • Looking at processes, I don't see anything hung or stuck using high resources...
  • I've tried restarting sddm and kwin_wayland --replace.
  • Scanned logs before and after sleep, didn't see anything stand out.

I feel like this started happening around the first release of the 6.12 kernel. Or maybe last couple NVIDIA driver releases. With that in mind, since it's the 6.12 kernel, I have set my scheduler to "scx_lavd --autopilot".

Anyone experiencing similar issues?

I do not have the solution to your problem but I may have a hint. I had this exact problem years ago. The only thing I recall is that there is a difference between sleep and hibernate and maybe your computer goes in hibernation mode. Try disabling it to see if the cause is sleep mode or hibernate mode (or both).

Sorry I don't have the solution. If you find it, let us know!

Edit: you may want to look at this https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/435.17/README/powermanagement.html

Good thought. Unfortunately I have confirmed the issue persists after sleep. Hibernation is disabled.

Yes. The appropriate nvidia service units are in place.
