wlroots excellent performance => bottleneck is not Wayland.
Gnome will catch up some day.

Gnome hasn't provided a good desktop experience since 2011. By the time they figure out how to stop sucking insofar as Wayland performance they will surely have discerned new ways to err.
There are other environments that have worked well for a decade and will work well for the next decade.

Test was about GNOME, I do not understand what they were expecting. It should be about same on most workloads.
To be clear the "adventure" I'm talking about is for replacing desktop environment niceties like the ones provided by gsettingsd and the tight integration provided between devices and the system management tools offered in full desktop blown environments like Gnome and KDE. I used i3 for six or seven years and it was never as nicely integrated as Gnome and I spent a LOT of time yak shaving to get it nice and keep it that way. Eventually I gave up. Gnome is really nice these days.
But maybe I missed the point of your original comment.
