Can’t replicate your results here. I play on Wayland, and deliberately force some games to run natively on Wayland (SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland) and so far I haven’t noticed any framerate changes except statistical noise.
Even the FPS monitor numbers show the same but there is visible lag when playing on wayland as against X11 (you’ll perhaps need a side-by-side comparison to notice). This isn’t just my observation, it’s well-known in the linux gaming community
Gaming. Frame rates on Wayland are horrible as compared to on X11
