Apologies if this is an unbearably repeated question, but I've recently just acquired the 2015 MBPro 13' and immediately after booting it up for the first time and installing both Chrome and Firefox, I'm noticing a significant amount of scrolling and loading lag on those two browsers compared to Safari. Even with minimal extensions running or even apps in the background, the experience is downright stuttery. Safari was running without a hitch, so I tried to turn off transparency + increase contrast but that did little to help. The last piece of advice I found was to reset the PRAM and that didn't do anything significant. In comparison, I'm also using mid 2012 MB Air 13' on Yosemite 10.10.3 isn't experiencing this issue at all. I have an appointment with the genius bar as a check-in, but I'm curious if this is just a normal experience with the latest OX updates or if there's any potential I may have a faulty machine?

MrMoo posted:It's the video acceleration, I know Chromium's bug tracker is filled full of outstanding issues. Some of the issues can be found on chrome://gpu/ Safari manages to perform magic that makes things work. Thanks for the explanation! Is there a workaround or fix that one can apply? Looks like I should cancel my reservation at the Genius Bar - everything else works well so far for all other intensive applications (Photoshop/Indesign), just really annoyed that the experience on Chrome is less than. I almost considered returning the Pro and going with a souped up Air instead...
