I don't know if there is a bug about this particular issue, but https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745032 has new comments from people complaining about things getting worse, and I suspect it might be this.

It is a rather big patch, but it has been on master for a while and have been tested some via https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jadahl/mutter-hw-cursor-on-demand/ .
