Each login, I selected a different session from this list: GNOME, GNOME Classic, Ubuntu, Ubuntu on Xorg.
In each session, I did:
- play 4k youtube video in full screen in firefox and chrome. For the next steps, I left firefox playing that video while conducting the other checks
- verified that firefox was using hardware acceleration (chrome isn't, that's known)
- sent a notification via notify-send, observed it was displayed
- did a large file copy with the file manager. First, locally, then over the network using SMB.
I did not observe any stuttering during these verifications, nor any other ill effect.
The hardware this was tested on is a ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 10 with an Intel Alderlake_p (Gen12) video system.

I installed gnome-session gnome-shell- extensions. I did not install budgie, because the test plan at https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/DesktopTeam /TestPlans/ Mutter says it's not needed for 23.10.
