Maelstrom Gaming and 12 fps

Read Original

This article details a web performance case study of the Maelstrom Gaming homepage, which suffered from severe jank and low frame rates during scrolling. The author walks through using browser DevTools to identify the root cause—an inefficient parallax scrolling implementation that triggered expensive repaints. It explains the diagnostic process, references key performance resources, and highlights how improper use of background-position in JavaScript can cripple scrolling performance, offering a practical lesson in front-end optimization.
