Chrome 24 vs IE10 Scrolling Horrible Lag
Chrome struggles with painting, especially at high resolutions such as 2560x1440 and above. Many websites such as the Chrome Web Store, Facebook, etc. exhibit significant scroll lag on it. IE10 maintains 120 fps on my monitor while scrolling on these sites.
I just had and fixed a similar issue.
Apparently Chrome isn't too smart about their recalculation of styles, besides that being terribly slow, so I focused on preventing it from recalculating anything.
I added the 'scrolled' class whenever the scroll event was triggered, but if it was already there, Chrome kept recalculating the new styles anyway. When I modified it to be like:
if (!body.hasClass('scrolled')) { body.addClass('scrolled'); }Chrome suddenly experienced a significant speedup (still no IE or FF, but much better than before)
It's the video card on the Netbook! You will experience similar effect on almost everithing that moves on your screen. I have a Netbook...
The web you are testing crashed Chrome browser until not long ago...
