STR: 1. Go to https://www.mobile.de/auto/ and scroll with mouse wheel or keys The CPU usage goes up to 80% on my not so young Lenovo T400 (Intel Core 2 Duo CPU P8600 @ 2.40GHz). The scrolling feels really cropped and not smooth at all. It's also high on Chrome, but only about 50%, and it "feels" smoother (perceived performance). Recorded perf.html: https://perfht.ml/2yT8R0r I am on Ubuntu 16.04 using Firefox Nightly
Compositor is using basic compositing, which is slow. And then the content thread appears to spend a lot of time blocked on a CrossProcessSemaphore waiting for the compositor to release buffers and such.
