There is one more change I did after upgrading from 19.04 to 19.10.

This is a KVM VM - and for some reason, the GUI (X) sometimes freezes after the VM is paused/saved/resumed, while SSH still works (this was also before 19.10 and behaviour did not improve in 19.10).

I've changed to Wayland to see if it this kind of freezing happens there as well (so far, it doesn't).

High CPU usage on all cores happens with Wayland only. I've just checked, it doesn't happen with regular X; CPU usage is normal/low there.
