(Whiteboard: [gfx-noted])

We run into the ANGLE/driver overhead pretty easily with WebRender. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1474583#c5 is an example of this.

not exactly sure how to prioritize this since this is like a 1-year project, and not necessarily the solution we need/want in the short term.
Priority: -- → P1

I'd keep it P1 but move it to stage-wr-year since that's the expected timeframe for it.
Blocks: stage-wr-year
No longer blocks: stage-wr-trains

FWIW, this works on Linux in prototype form now: https://github.com/szeged/webrender/issues/198#issuecomment-416635113
Priority: P1 → P3
Severity: normal → S3
