Details

When you're transitioning between FX & iOS, the animation seems janky when iOS slides in from the left to replace FX. You'll see the blur animation but then it janks near the end of the transition. This usually happens when you're under the about:home screen.

I asked a few people in the office and they confirmed that they noticed the jank that's occurring.

STR:

- launch "Fennec Aurora" (stay under on the home screen)
- double tap the iPhones button to get an overview apps that are currently running (fx and the OS)
- switch back and forth between fx and the OS (you should notice some jank when the transitions are happening)
It might be hard to notice via the video.. sometimes the jank is very subtle and sometimes it's really noticeable. I also noticed a lot of jank when I lock the phone while FX is opened... Unlock the phone and FX will transition into view which janks a lot most of the times :/
Yep, it's due to the blur we use on top-sites. :sleroux has a patch up as of today!
