I think the problem described in that bug is different from what I am experiencing. If I understood correctly, bug 1308843 is about the buffer consumption thread consuming at a rate different from the real compositor.
From irc: "duflu: It's exactly the same as multi-monitor with 59.9Hz vs 60.0Hz. With physical displays we accept the beating, but with the virtual one we shouldn't"

However, with this branch, even if I reduce the vsync rate to 10Hz, I still get periodic speed-ups reaching ~65FPS, which contradict an earlier statement that "SwitchingBundle is designed to not consume buffers faster than the fastest unique user_id does". So perhaps we have two different problem in our hands?
