You are able to get a visual performance boost by implementing will-change
on elements. It is supported in recent browsers (excluding edge and no IE).
The will-change CSS property hints to browsers how an element is expected to change. Browsers may set up optimizations before an element is actually changed. These kinds of optimizations can increase the responsiveness of a page by doing potentially expensive work before they are actually required.
You can either impelment it like:
function gogoJuice() {
// The optimizable properties that are going to change
self.elems[i].style.willChange="transform";
}
function sleepNow() {
self.elems[i].style.willChange="auto";
}
Or more basically just in the css on the element which you are changing:
.parallax {
will-change: transform;
}
This property is intended as a method for authors to let the user-agent know about properties that are likely to change ahead of time. Then the browser can choose to apply any ahead-of-time optimizations required for the property change before the property change actually happens. So it is important to give the the browser some time to actually do the optimizations. Find some way to predict at least slightly ahead of time that something will change, and set will-change then.
