Can you set vid_nativefullscreen CVAR to true and restart GZDoom to check if it changes something?

Hmm that didn't seem to affect it at all. Here's a clip of what it looks like for me, in slow motion though so it comes across clearer. I spotted about 9 stutters/hitches in this clip. You'll notice the frame time graph doesn't actually reflect these stutters, which is very odd to me. https://imgur.com/a/UaQXINd

I'm using Vulkan, but it still occurs with every other renderer.

This stutter was still occurring in Monterey, even late version. Vsync does not have this issue in VKQuake. I’m really just curious as to what’s causing it, because the new Resident Evil 8 port runs smooth as butter on my Mac.

Things were great in Monterey at the end, I wish they hadn't moved forward with Ventura.

Apple broke VSync again. Early versions of Monterey had exactly the same bug. Nothing we can do about it.

Hello! Title says it all. I have reported this issue before but wasn't (and am still not exactly) able to nail down a cause of what it could be. Simply put, turning on vsync causes some very noticeable frame stuttering at any frame rate and well under what my Mac can max out at. In DOOM II, I usually get about 400 FPS at the beginning stage on my monitor, but locking it to my monitor's refresh rate of 100 causes stutters. Now, just limiting the frame rate to 100 and turning vsync off eliminates the stutters, but introduces some distracting tearing. My solution for playing right now is simply letting the frames run wild and dealing with the occasional screen tearing, but I would love to be able to play with vsync enabled.

I'm running GZDoom 4.9 using MacOS 13 on an M1 Max Mac Studio.

Thank you.
