[Daniel van Vugt <daniel.van.vugt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The proof the client is really still rendering while the composited
image appears frozen is in MIR_CLIENT_PERF_REPORT=log. Using that you
can see the client is still rendering at a high rate but it also shows
the client has been starved of one of its three buffers during the
freeze.

** Summary changed:

- Clients using swap interval zero in Unity8 freeze regularly. Need to interact with the shell to unfreeze them.
+ Apps appear to freeze in Unity8, although they are really still rendering (swap interval zero). Need to interact with the shell to unfreeze it.

** Description changed:

- Clients using swap interval zero in Unity8 freeze regularly. Need to
- interact with the shell to unfreeze them.
+ Apps appear to freeze in Unity8, although they are really still
+ rendering (swap interval zero). Need to interact with the shell to
+ unfreeze it.
  
  Test case (on Unity8 wily desktop):
  $ glmark2-mir -b :title=--desktop_file_hint=unity8
  
  Test case (on a phone):
  $ mir_demo_client_target -n--desktop_file_hint=unity8

** Description changed:

  Apps appear to freeze in Unity8, although they are really still
  rendering (swap interval zero). Need to interact with the shell to
  unfreeze it.
  
  Test case (on Unity8 wily desktop):
  $ glmark2-mir -b :title=--desktop_file_hint=unity8
+ This freezes a couple of times during the benchmark.
  
  Test case (on a phone):
  $ mir_demo_client_target -n--desktop_file_hint=unity8
+ This freezes very quickly when you move your finger around.
