Thanks Ed, I tried Gnome under Wayland and Xorg and as documented in
the problem
description, even though gnome shell lags with gdm, when gnome under Xorg is
started the lag disappears. The only difference in my case is that the issue was
not caused by upgrading from F26 to F27, which the problem description seems to be
indicating, it was working fine in F27, until an update I put on caused the issue.
If as indicated in the problem description the gnome-shell issue only happens under
Wayland, does that mean that gdm runs under Wayland, and if so is there any way to
change that functionality to get gdm to run under Xorg until the Wayland issue is
resolved?
Yes, the login screen of gdm runs under wayland by default
Edit the file /etc/gdm/custom.conf accordingly
[daemon]
# Uncoment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg
#WaylandEnable=false
