Interesting, that makes perfect sense from the perspective of working with existing browsers. I think it's awesome that the flutter team is making canvas work.

But what I'm curious about is why an average consumer laptop can render a game with 3D projection, PBR, physics, and multiplayer networking, made by a newbie in a game engine. But that same laptop struggles to render a webpage. Even an extremely complex and content-heavy webapp is nothing compared to a game.

There has to be a bottleneck other than dom optimization, right? Like I mentioned before, canvas painting must have huge overhead...
