Previously, compton fails to stop draw_idle in some cases when sw_opti is enabled. sw_opti is a feature that limits the draw frequence to vblank frequence. It adds a delay to drawing when the screen is updated more frequently than the vblank frequence. However when the delay is not used (i.e. the screen is updated infrequent enough), compton will start drawing the frame directly without using the delay. And specically in this case, compton will fail to stop the draw_idle, causing a callback to be called once per loop of the mainloop, resulting in high CPU usage.

Compton
This is a development branch, bug to be expected
This is forked from the original Compton because that seems to have become unmaintained.
The current battle plan of this fork is to refactor it to make the code possible to maintain, so potential contributors won't be scared away when they take a look at the code.
We also try to fix bugs.
The original README can be found here
