Steps to reproduce

Load gvim with any file (e.g. a C source file of vim).
Use the mouse wheel to scroll.
Notice that scrolling stutters and/or doesn't happen for a while. When it does, it seems to "miss" scroll events.

Expected behaviour

Previously, the mouse wheel scrolling was smooth and consistent.

Note: on every other application on the same system (browsers, etc) the mouse wheel scrolls perfectly well. So it's neither a mouse hardware issue nor an OS specific problem.

Version of Vim

9.1.80

Environment

Mint 21.3, Cinnamon

Thank you for posting this; I've noticed this intermittently starting over the last week or two. I've been wondering if it was due to a change in vim or something that changed recently on my linux/ubuntu/system76 system (which I upgrade regularly). With this issue, it now seems more likely it is gvim.

As a workaround, if I do "*Y to copy anything to the primary clipboard the scroll wheel starts to work properly.

Same. Oh, that's a weird workaround! I'll have to try it... OK, yes indeed that does work. Very weird!

Hi,
can you bisect the offending commit? Could it be the Wayland commit v9.1.0064?
