So I launched Custom Session -> xterm.

Filled my terminal with junk so I could test scrolling.

Mouse wheel scrolls xterm perfectly, I can unlock my mouse wheel so it is floating and just spin it extremely fast.  Everything is fine.

Launch xev.  Spin the wheel. Here is an example of what scrolling each direction looks like to xev.  I can see it is recording every tiny movement of the mouse wheel.

 

ButtonRelease event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x600001,

root 0xf1, subw 0x0, time 734318546, (170,8), root:(180,41),

state 0x800, button 4, same_screen YES

 

ButtonPress event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x600001,

root 0xf1, subw 0x0, time 734318639, (170,8), root:(180,41),

state 0x0, button 5, same_screen YES

 

I might have to put together a video of this happening.

Update.  If I launch a custom session that directly launches say an IntelliJ editor, Google-Chrome, (tried lots of apps) the problem still exists.  Mouse Scrolling appears to flood the event stack.  It only seems if I use a virtual desktop session like gnome or kde does this problem go away.
