Qt QPA plugins do the waiting precisely by calling eglSwapBuffers. You can control the swap interval by means of QSurfaceFormat::setSwapInterval(). Pass in a value of 0 to disable any sync, -1 to use adaptive sync (if your driver supports it), any other positive integer for that number of syncs.
Also make sure the QPA has the correct refresh rate for your screen.

Remember to compile your application and all important dependencies (esp. Qt) in release mode with debug symbols, i.e. at least use the compile flags `-O2 -g`.
