Impressive but also impressive in that scrolling down through the examples makes my fully-loaded M4-Max Macbook Pro judder. I hate to imaging the performance of a full UI leveraging this stuff. Apple can do it in the UI because they can optimize the hell out of it.
- spicybright 1y agoSame, very laggy on my machine. The spectacular border effects also didn't work for me.
- StrangeDoctor 1y agoYeah this site does not scroll like butter as it were. But I don’t think css can leverage the gpu in most (any?) cases. Apple has almost certainly baked something into the silicon to help handle the ui.
- CognitiveLens 1y agoMost browsers will engage the GPU for compositing layers if they think the layers can be separated - https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2016/12/gpu-animation-doing-it-right/ https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2016/12/gpu-animation-doing...
- StrangeDoctor 1y agoInteresting, thank you!
- kubeio 1y agoHaha, I’m the author of the post. I planned to fix the performance issues before posting here (since I knew HN would be quick to point that out), but somebody posted it first. You’re absolutely right — it’s pretty slow right now and needs optimization. And it’s not just the refraction/displacement map: plenty of other parts, like visualisations, aren’t optimized yet either.
- jonahx 1y agoPerformance aside, this is really well done.
- keepamovin 1y agolol this demo is SO cool. you have NOTHING to be anything but proud and happy of. you did excellently and this UI is the perfect realization of this idea. Well done! It ran perfectly smoothly with no perf hit in 2020 mba m1. there are no issues with this.
- rafark 1y ago> You’re absolutely right — it’s pretty slow right now and needs optimization. Man the ptsd that AIs have given us from sentences like this.

- kubeio 1y agoI did a quick performance fix, should be a bit better, at least on Chrome. (Safari stills seems to be a bit slow to render SVGs) Anyway, I did not expect this blog post to be on HN, so still things to improve on it.
- crent 1y agoIt's very very smooth for me now. Impressive. Thank you for sharing!
