- wlesieutre 11y agoScolling is smooth in IE on a Surface Pro 3, but not in Firefox. That's pretty typical. What's unusual is that it's visibly janky in Firefox on this desktop with an i7 and a Quadro FX 580. Sure, it's not a brand new workstation, but it should be able to scroll a webpage...
- CHY872 11y agoAlso using Firefox here. It's a MacBook Pro that's a few years old, but is still fast.
- fixermark 11y agoUnfortunately, since the w3c standards don't include any constraints for performance, it's entirely possible Google's code is optimized for Chrome and iOS and not (yet?) Firefox.
- Retr0spectrum 11y agoSeems fine for me on Firefox 38.0.1 on Arch Linux, with an i5 2520M
- thirdsun 11y agoWorks fine on iOS. Fast and flawless in fact.
- kreeben 11y agoYou sound just like all of my feature-creepy enterprise customers. Yeah dude, looks nice, but it's not snappy. Make it so it's snappy. Or no money for you.
- CHY872 11y agoIt's more that if you have a site that's designed to showcase how good your company is at designing websites, and the site doesn't run well on a high end laptop, then it doesn't say much for your design, as it suggests you emphasise form over functionality.
- kreeben 11y agoYes! Of course that's your point and I agree because the whole idea of this design concept was for Google to show us how much they care about usability and they somewhat failed at that if you had that experience. It was more of a joke from a grumpy old man who had flashbacks from scary moments where deals where made with much money involved and where the specifications changed daily.
