In chromium searchbar type: Chrome://flags
Set the following:
Experimental canvas features - enable
Smooth Scrolling - disable
Number of raster threads - 4
Memory ablation experiment - enable (or 100mb - try both)
If this improves the performance for others, Prophesi would you please include these flags in your first post please ?
I recommend the smooth scrolling be disabled by default if possible... smooth graphics is not a strong point of the pinebook... so any unnecessary screen updates we can get rid of the better. It looks like --disable-smooth-scrolling is the command line flag for that, so it could be added to the /etc/chromium-browser/defaults file as part of the image?
Hard to tell the impact of the other settings... it seems a bit quicker, but it could be mind over matter. I wasn't able to enable the memory ablation flag as it hasn't available in my build.
This will be handy reference to keep in mind when playing with the chromium flags: List of Chromium Command Line Switches
