Dartium Canvas Performance

[Davy Mitchell]

Interesting post on Reddit re: Dartium Canvas Performance

http://www.reddit.com/r/dartlang/comments/2tjm5b/drawing_to_onscreen_canvas_super_slow/

From the results listed, it looks like Dartium is much slower than chrome. Is it lacking GPU acceleration or some other feature?

Thanks,

Davy

It'd be useful to have a standalone testing program for Dart Canvas rendering tests.

Drawing performance does seem to be a bit sluggish compared to Chrome, Firefox, or even IE11. I guess it's a side-effect of the alpha-quality Dart integration. At this point, it's just a dev tool. There is probably quite a bit of overhead in areas where it kinda hurts.

Anyhow, for a GPU status report, check: chrome://gpu/

There is also a flag for enabling an FPS counter: chrome://flags/#show-fps-counter
