It's pretty cool. Congrats on your effort. On suggestion, you can make it more less memory intensive. On my MBP/Chrome, my fan started blowing at full speed while I was using Point. I compared the webpage's memory footprint with and without the extension and the difference is huge. 109MB vs 60MB for my personal webpage. It's even more on the verge example.

Thanks a lot. What did you use to determine this? I am using Chrome inspector's heap allocation profiler and not noticing this difference. We're very interested in fixing this!

Hi, I used the Chrome task manager (Under more tools) to check the memory usage on the page with/without the extension. Perhaps the profiler can give you more info.
