I have found that the presence of the %WINDIR%/System32/NvFBC64.dll causes very bad latency and stuttering. Moving (or deleting) that file and restarting the Looking Glass host process resolves this. If I then move that file back and restart the host, the problem resumes.
Note that the monitor on the left is running Ubuntu with the Looking Glass client running, while the monitor on the right is plugged directly into the GPU passed through to the Windows VM. You can see how at the beginning the icon lags behind the cursor and stutters, and the window movement stutters a lot as well; after moving NvFBC64.dll, everything renders quite smoothly.
I'm guessing that there's some sort of side effect of loading that DLL that taints the host process from that point on, though I have no idea how or why.
Interesting but not an LG bug. LG will not use NvFBC if it fails to init, if attempting to load it is causing a perf issue then it's an NVIDIA driver bug. NvFBC is deprecated anyway.

This is on version 445.87 of the NVIDIA drivers.
