Wayland doesn't constantly redraw the window (this is why pycharm had issues with Xwayland) so you already have this benefit if you're on Wayland.

That's just about redrawing. It does nothing about other, potentially unwanted process background CPU use.

Many apps (esp electron) use CPU regardless of whether they’re redrawing the actual desktop window or not.
