> I found it hard to believe we couldn’t get a wakeup timer more granular than 1 ms, so I looked at what KWin was using. Indeed, it was passing the sleep duration in milliseconds to a QBasicTimer.

I fixed the same thing in GNOME a few years ago across GLib, GTK, and Mutter/GNOME Shell. It required getting glib onto ppoll() finally.
