[Bug 1283865] Re: Opening the dash preview causes high CPU usage

 

This still happens, and actually spikes in ~90% cpu. But its completely
transient, dropping back to ~2% pretty quickly. This happens only
through the animation & transition and frankly I would have expected
this. Transitional animations are just bursty & "expensive" operations
(both on cpu & gpu). In order to achieve the nice UX experience with the
smoothness & snappieness that we have, I'm not sure we can consider this
a bug.
