[clarifying summary to make it clear this isn't an indefinite hang; on my system, we hang for ~1 second.] [also clarifying to make it clear that this isn't SVG-as-an-image] So sysprof says we spend all of the hang-time in nsLayoutUtils::PaintFrame I think this is a result of 2 factors: #1 This is a really complex SVG graphic, which takes a little while to repaint. #2 We repaint on tab-switch. I compared to Chrome (blink) and Opera 12.16 (presto), which tab-switch nicely. I think they do better simply because they don't have behavior #2, apparently. (They must cache the rasterization at some level.) However, if you force them to repaint by e.g. switching spreadsheet-tabs (to "sheet1" and then back to "chart1") and then wiggle your mouse back and forth between a clickable and non-clickable area (to test whether the page is responding or not -- if it's responding, the cursor will update), you'll see a hang for about the same amount of time where the cursor stops being updated. So we're not alone in hanging while we paint this graphic; I think it's just that we repaint on tab-switch, while Chrome and Opera do not.

Doesn't seem to hang on Windows so perhaps this is something that's only on Mac and Linux.
