The current rendering configuration of Chrome on Windows can lead to substantial presentation latency. This project aims to reduce that latency by using waitable DXGI swap chains, allowing Chrome to recover more quickly from rendering hiccups. Following incorporation of this project, presentation latency should decrease by at least 1-2 frames. This will significantly improve Chrome's responsiveness in interactive webpages, such as games or drawing applications.
