Strange, I had the opposite experience on an iPad 3. The 3D animations performed way better than the 2D ones - a bit of tearing on the sliders.

CSS 3D transforms are hardware accelerated on iOS, so yes they will look great. Chances are the parent poster isn't getting H/W acceleration, possibly due to driver issues etc.

The 3D animations weren't 3D at all, for me. They were both exactly the same as fade.

Your browser must not support 3D transitions so the plugin degrades to the fade transition. Try one of the latest Chrome/Safari/Firefox browsers to see the 3D scrolling.

Same on my laptop, which doesn't have a discrete video card.
