Looks like it's caused by `backdrop-filter: blur(6px);` on `.menu-content`. After disabling that it's slow, but not that slow.

Edit: This is with Firefox 144 on Ubuntu 22.04

No, actually the biggest difference is removing the `filter` property from the `.wave2` class which is used for rendering the background. With that removed the page is responsive even with the backdrop-filter - and it makes no visual difference AFAICS.

Thanks folks for all the suggestions, I've rewritten the whole page :)

It's also perfectly responsive if you disable JavaScript. Maybe something related to the --positionX and --positionY CSS variables that are updated on every mouse move?
