  2. Watch the Millennium Falcon hyperspace animation.

Expected result

The animation should be smooth like in Chrome and Safari.

Actual result

The animation is super slow and the Firefox UI becomes unresponsive. Here is a profile spending a lot of time in WebRender code:

Three people on Hacker News report that the animation crashed Firefox and Focus on Android:

WFM. The animation is smooth for me in Firefox Nightly 100 on my Windows 11 laptop and it doesn't crash on my Android phone (a mid-range Samsung Galaxy A32). I assume WebRender performance issue has been fixed.
