Awesome demo, but unfortunately rather slow on my (oldish) Macbook.
I also recently made a page with frosted glass effect, but opted for pre-rendered images because of those performance issues: https://eggerapps.at/pgcommander/fancy-index.html https://eggerapps.at/pgcommander/fancy-index.html
(But I decided the effect was too playful for my website and so it's not public)
- mjolk 13y agoHow "oldish" is your Macbook? I'm using a core2duo and didn't have any problems. In fact, retrieving an image from Placekitten took the longest on the network, followed by the overhead of loading a Google font. The only real CPU time spent on this page is the overhead of codepen. Are you mistaking network latency for performance issues with the example?
- widdershins 13y agoI'm also on a core2duo, but I found it slow. It loaded and rendered quickly, but when I resized the preview window (the ability to resize being the main point of doing it this way, I assume), it was very choppy.
- mjolk 13y agoBrowser versions are important. Do you mind pasting a profile from your debugging tool of choice?
- jakobe 13y agoAbout 4 years. As another commenter said, the problem wasn't loading time, but choppy scrolling/resizing. I am on Mavericks/latest version of safari.
