Sluggish Vertical Display Performance

Restarting the displaylink driver helps remove the laggy performance only momentarily on the vertical screen. There is no lagg if I have both screens horizontal.

Do you have the latest version of the macOS driver (version 1.4.0) installed? --> https://www.displaylink.com/downloads/macos

I ask because the release notes --> https://s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/a...ease+Notes.txt

indicate that one of the items improved with this rotation performance:

"C.3 Changes in 1.4.0 release
----------------------------
- Improved rotated-screen performance (32926)"

Yes. I do have displaylink manager v1.4.0 installed.

I haven't encountered the lagg I've reported since re-installing... Strange

WIll repost a reply if I encounter it again.

Edit: Still encountering!

After updating to 1.4 on BigSur 11.3 i've noticed that I am starting to get times where my vertical screen freezes.

In order to resolve it I have to kill the DisplayLink manager and restart it.
