Hi, I found this interesting: http://a.qoid.us/google.html
Because it's clearly very non-JavaScript focused (just a CSS rotation) and yet the browsers exhibit very different performance characteristics. All on my underpowered Windows laptop, Chrome 3 & 4: smooth. Very nice anti-aliased accurate rendering. Safari 4: not quite as smooth; less fps but still not bad. Text / lines more jagged and text "wobbles" during the rotation. The other browsers do not support the CSS used / required for this demo. There was a similar version, but using SVG animation to do something very similar. (It's currently offline). Firefox and Opera were able to attempt the rotation of this one but both performed much worse that Safari and Chrome. Anyone know why Chrome, and to a certain extent Safari, are so much better on this non-JS test? Is the Skia library underpinning Chrome superior? There's also a difference between Chrome Windows and Chrome Linux. Whilst Chrome Linux performs smoothly, the text is clearly jiggling around and even getting more / less bold throughout the rotation cycle. Doesn't do that on Windows. Any ideas? Cheers Chris
