           Summary: Steam and wineserver too high CPU usage
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86

terminal output

Steam.exe and the wineserver processes consume much more cpu power than they
used to, even when Steam is idling.
On my rather old system equipped with a dual-core AMD processor, htop shows
that Steam.exe constantly consumes 35-40% cpu power,  wineserver 55-60%. This
was tested with the game library page opened and while Steam was idling. Before
the regression: Steam.exe: 12-15%, wineserver: 5-6 %.
It's not just the Steam client that reacts more slowly to mouse input, e.g.
when browsing through the list of installed games, but every game started
inside Steam has a noticeable performance hit.

    winex11.drv: Use generic EnumDisplayMonitors.

The problem happens both in Wine's fullscreen and virtual desktop mode. I have
a single monitor setup and using XFCE on Arch Linux.
