design CPU usage [not really a bug]

This is not really a bug and I understand that this cannot be changed soon:
 
For some reason the way the CSS design works is causing heavy CPU load (especially in latest FireFox, a bit less in recent Opera versions).
 
This problem is not sepcific to themovievault, i.e. many cluttered myspace pages will cause similar problems for me.
 
This results in for example the frontpage scrolling with 2 FPS per second and while I can watch streams in full, it won't work properly in normal view due to the CPU usage (the FF browser got no real sheduling, so if anything goes slow then everything does).
 
I think the problem is rare for most users though, since my AMD XP 2400+ is a bit aged nowadays I guess.
 
 
I am not sure if the thread is in the correct forum, delete or move it as appropiate, please.

This I believe is down to the CSS attributes TMV is using. TMV uses firefox and webkit specific CSS to round off corners:


 


-moz-border-radius: {radius};
-webkit-border-radius: {radius};


 


Other factors such as javascript intensive pages (the view page), high amounts of page stucture, high amounts of images will also affect the rendering time for your browser.


 


It shouldn't however affect your scrolling speed (rendering) at all. Sounds like a bug with your firefox, or something else within your system. Flash can also be one of the biggest bitches. TMV does nothing different to the other huge web applications, so I wouldn't consider it a bug at all.

Yes I agree that it's not a TMV specific problem and more likely got s.th. to do with my setup. But I cannot delete the post myself. So feel free to move / delete it as appropiate.
