Hey Guys.

I've been running windows again for a few months and want to get Linux up and running again. Few things have changed since I tried it though. Just wondering if there are any tweaks that I still need to make to my study collections/charts or wine etc?

For example, I remember before opengl was introduced I needed to not use 'dots' line type or use certain fill types like 'Fill Bottom', instead use 'Rectangle Fill Bottom'. Is that still the case?

Only reason I ask is i'm running Kubuntu 20.04 with Wine 5.5 with 440 nvidia drivers and it just feels more sluggish than I remember. Or maybe that's just because windows is more snappy now with the Opengl implementation in sierra

One thing of note is the GPU utilisation which is normally around 15-20%, it's now 50-80%:
