If you compare glxspheres64 with and without the "optirun", you'll get a rough idea of how much faster the Nvidia card renders 3D than the Intel one.
I edited Google Earth Pro's command in the menu so it uses the Nvidia Card, because
A: it's faster
B: it doesn't work with the "intel" driver I use, though it does with the default modesetting driver for the Intel GPU.
Code: Select all
optirun /opt/google/earth/pro/google-earth-pro %f

Try this in the terminal:
Code: Select all
sudo apt remove nvidia-persistenced
That should only be ever installed on systems where the Nvidia card is primary, such as a desktop, since its purpose is to keep the Nvidia card turned on at all times--which is not what you want with Optimus.
I think that's a bug for Optimus in MX NI, and it's pulled in by installing the recommends. We may have to resort to just installing each package individually for Optimus laptops.
