Turning it on enabled confirming the machine can exhibit Intel GPU hangs while running TDE: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/2024
Did i understand correctly that turning on a compositor is a good way to shoot yourself in the leg? :)
AFAICT, only if using an Intel Haswell, and it doesn't apply to all Haswells. Non-Haswells in that report seem all to be a different issue.
I keep compositing off by default, regardless of DE that permits it.
