I can’t comment on this one specifically, but SVG animations take notably more CPU usage to render/animate in Chromium browsers compared to GIF or WAAPI. And they block the main thread for at least some animations.
- spauldo 1y agoThat's pretty typical. Every element of an SVG is an object with a bunch of properties that can be manipulated and scripted and whatnot. It's great for a lot of things, but it's a lot more resource intensive than "dump this set of pixels onto the screen here" like GIF does or even "perform this set of drawing commands" like HTML canvas does.
