On my Android (4.1) the demos loaded and ran slowly on Firefox, but were best by far with Chrome Beta: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chrome.bet...

There were still obvious hiccups attributable to the GC. Most of the time the game was going a full 60hz.

On my Android Phone ( 4.1, Galaxy S2 ) the demos ran very quickly on the stable version of Firefox, but the stable version of Chrome struggled greatly until I enabled webgl in about:flags.

Even with webgl enabled, Chrome was still a bit slower than Firefox on the bunnies demo.

The flashvhtml site and game that was posted here a while ago also uses pixi.js. http://flashvhtml.com/

The html5 version of the game there runs very well on both Firefox and Chrome with webgl enabled on Android.
