> scrolling web pages with large images is laggy

Now that I've read this, I can also remember that I was also annoyed by jerks when scrolling web pages.

I also found the backup management too complicated. I didn't want to back up entire VMs, just the data within the VMs. In principle, I would have had to start up all VMs for backups and run a backup script for each individual VM.

I only noticed the jerky scrolling on pages with a lot of images, particularly hires + CSS effects (blur etc.). Everything else feels OK to me (I'm sure it could be smoother, but it's not too bad so I haven't noticed).

For backups, I don't them the qubes way, I do "regular" backups within VM using rsync/duplicity/... When moving to a new machine I prefer to setup everything from scratch (and then restore the data). And it gives me all the features like incremental backups etc.
