The WgpuRenderer defaults to VK_PRESENT_MODE_FIFO_KHR (vsync), which blocks vkQueuePresentKHR until the compositor releases a buffer via wl_surface.frame. On some Wayland compositor+driver combinations (notably NVIDIA proprietary + Hyprland, but also observed on KDE/GNOME + AMD RADV), these frame callbacks can be delayed or lost, stalling the entire calloop event loop for tens of seconds. VK_PRESENT_MODE_MAILBOX_KHR does not block on vblank: it replaces the pending frame in a single-entry queue. This avoids the stall entirely. The renderer already falls back to Fifo automatically if Mailbox is unsupported by the driver. The WgpuSurfaceConfig has had a preferred_present_mode field since #50815 (added for Android lifecycle transitions with the same rationale). This commit sets it to Mailbox in the Wayland window creation path only. X11 is not affected. Self-Review Checklist: - [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability - [x] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments - [x] The content is consistent with the [UI/UX checklist](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist) - [x] Tests cover the new/changed behavior - [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable Note on tests: This change is in the Wayland platform's window creation path (WaylandWindowState::new). The surface configuration is delegated to WgpuRenderer which already has test coverage for preferred_present_mode fallback logic. A full integration test would require a running Wayland compositor in CI. Verified manually and tested against the renderer's unwrap_or(Fifo) safety net by inspecting surface_caps.present_modes on both NVIDIA proprietary and Mesa RADV drivers.
