Usually, one must read a piece to build an opinion on its style and comment about it. Just sayin'.

I do experience flickering, on both a desktop Fedora 22 system and a X1 carbon 4th gen system running OpenBSD 6.0. It is usually mostly noticeable in the fringe area as well as along the divider when splitting windows. Kuddos for OP, the pa

A 20s turnover is not even that slow. Debugging undecidable timing issues in an FPGA may have turnover counted in hours given how slow HW synthesizers are. If the need of better tooling is clear, the OP does not mention one important point:

I am using OpenBSD as my primary workstation on a 2015 Carbon X1, and it works like a charm.
