Interesting. I have 64GB of RAM and yet this page managed to kill the tab entirely.

FWIW, works great and animates smoothly on a Surface Laptop 4 with 16 GB RAM (Firefox).

Weird. I only have 16GB but seems to run fine for me?

Maybe it's Windows? Seems on MacOS it runs fine with much less RAM.

Do you have hardware acceleration disabled in your browser?

I checked and I have it enabled. But, I don't have a dedicated GPU, just whatever is inside of i7-14700k. Maybe it's just not up for the task?

That may be it. The page runs a fire simulation, so it really struggles when my hardware acceleration is off.
