Question about performance #17

Closed ekerstein closed 3 years ago

ekerstein commented 3 years ago

Does this library help the performance of a page, or is it more about deferring animation for better user experience?

I have a page with lots of charts on it and I'm wondering if it would load faster if I use this plugin to defer the initial chart updates until the user scrolls down.

Depends on what you call performance.

is it more about deferring animation for better user experience?

It is definitely for that.

would it load faster if I use this plugin to defer the initial chart updates until the user scrolls down?

It would not load faster but decrease a screen freeze seen when multiple charts render at once. Treat it as lazy loading.
