I can play 3D videogames with lots of advanced shaders and even develop my own, perform very demanding computations on my 8-core machine and watch HD movies and stream from the web, yet I can't easily view a simple home page from the internet?

Is this the state of technology in 2014?

If you are indeed on Linux, you may have to enable hardware acceleration at chrome://gpu . Last time I checked it was not enabled by default on Linux.

edit: Ack, sorry, just re-read parent and you are using Firefox. I do not know whether they have similar issues with 3D acceleration on linux.

Also I am not saying the website couldn't perform better, you have a valid point there.

Yeah, it is a shame. I'm getting some checkerboarding there too as my Chromebook Pixel can't always keep up with rendering the surfaces when scrolling quickly.

Funnily enough my (a lot slower) Nexus 7 scrolls much better. That is what points me towards 3D drivers.

But anyway, shall we talk about Flowhub itself? ;-)
