FF Update: Gecko based Firefox isn’t as performant as WebKit/Chromium on desktop/mobile devices when it comes to some canvas operations (even on offscreen!). I was able to greatly improve performance on desktop by limiting how much I drew and played with UV coords instead. That unfortunately wasn’t enough for FF on Android. Had to turn off “live” snowflake rendering for android. It does feel snappy on draw you just don’t get the “live” snowflake preview till you close a drawn shape. On FF Android the snappy draw is worth the trade off.
