Why is Chrome so slow with this? Does anyone know

- agys 5y agoIt’s Firefox that has become fast…! This is totally unscientific, but I like to write experimental apps that manipulate the DOM heavily and Firefox is very often the fastest between Chrome and Safari in repainting the DOM (this wasn’t the case ~3 years ago).
- Kavelach 5y agoThere is a lot of cruft in Chrome's engine that accumulated over the years. Meanwhile, Firefox had a lot of the engine logic rewritten from scratch, using Rust.
