Interesting how this inadvertently showcases modern browsers redrawing the page content based on what has actually changed. Even though each "frame" is a new page, you only see a flash where the new image is being shown or replaced.
- guywithabike 12y agoIncorrect. You see a flash because the new image has't been loaded yet, but all the other images have been previously loaded and cached, so your browser can display them almost immediately. Try going back to page 1 — each page will appear to load instantly if you have all the images cached.
- MrBuddyCasino 12y agoWith Chrome on OSX I can see what he means - "new" (but already cached) pictures still flicker, the old ones do not. So it can't be caching.
