* ugh * does anyone actually like that avatar animation, and the slow scrolling that results from it?

I find the comments here far more useful, and they aren't one-line commands with no explanation of the parts. Thanks for the submission, for the discussion's sake, but I'm not going back to that blog any time soon.

Thanks for checking out the article.

Which browser and OS are you using? Scrolling isn't slow in webkit for myself, but I'd be happy to dig in and make it smoother if it's an issue.

Canary Chrome in OSX. It's been stuttery in every browser I've used, in multiple OSes; I've been on the site a couple times in the past for other posts (I think most via HN). To clarify: it doesn't crawl, but it's not smooth.

Looking at the profiler in Chrome, I'm not seeing any unnecessary events while scrolling between things - maybe it's a transparency somewhere instead? Removing a handful I could find did speed things up, though I probably missed a few. Browsers are still lame at those, unfortunately :/

Good to know. We'll work on getting it smoothed out a bit.
