GNOME Shell vs. KDE Plasma - X.Org vs. Wayland
Tests coming up.. Some quick/basic tests for now by Michael Larabel on Phoronix.
X.Org Server: KDE Plasma 5.12.1
Processor Notes: Scaling Governor: intel_pstate powersave
Security Notes: KPTI + __user pointer sanitization + Full generic retpoline Protection
Wayland: KDE Plasma 5.12.1
Processor: Intel Core i9-7980XE @ 4.40GHz (18 Cores / 36 Threads), Motherboard: ASUS PRIME X299-A (1004 BIOS), Chipset: Intel Sky Lake-E DMI3 Registers, Memory: 16384MB, Disk: 525GB Crucial_CT525MX3 + 256GB INTEL SSDPEKKW256G8, Graphics: AMD Radeon 4096MB, Audio: Realtek ALC1220, Monitor: Acer B286HK, Network: Intel Connection
OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20180220, Kernel: 4.15.4-1-default (x86_64), Desktop: KDE Plasma 5.12.1, Display Server: X Server 1.19.6, Display Driver: modesetting 1.19.6, OpenGL: 4.5 Mesa 18.0.0-rc4 (LLVM 5.0.1), Compiler: GCC 7.3.0, File-System: xfs, Screen Resolution: 3840x2160
X.Org Server: GNOME Shell 3.26.2
Wayland: GNOME Shell 3.26.2
OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20180220, Kernel: 4.15.4-1-default (x86_64), Desktop: GNOME Shell 3.26.2, Display Server: X Server 1.19.6, Display Driver: modesetting 1.19.6, OpenGL: 4.5 Mesa 18.0.0-rc4 (LLVM 5.0.1), Compiler: GCC 7.3.0, File-System: xfs, Screen Resolution: 3840x2160
Unigine Superposition
This test calculates the average frame-rate within the Valley demo for the Unigine engine, released in February 2013. This engine is extremely demanding on the system's graphics card. Unigine Valley relies upon an OpenGL GL3 Core Profile context. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.

Xonotic
This is a benchmark of Xonotic, which is a fork of the DarkPlaces-based Nexuiz game. Development began in March of 2010 on the Xonotic game. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
GpuTest
GpuTest is a cross-platform OpenGL benchmark developed at Geeks3D.com that offers tech demos such as FurMark, TessMark, and other workloads to stress various areas of GPUs and drivers. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
