Yeah very much different constraints. I would send a screenshot if I knew I could make it public because the results look spectacular. Rendering at 60 to 120FPS, perfectly smooth navigation, rendering even 10k OHLC candles without a hiccup.

Don't worry I'm ok without having my eyes burned out by the lack of proper subpixel AA on your fonts. :P

10k candles at 120 fps seems like you could absolutely do it in JS alone, though I suppose the app came first and wanting to deploy it to end users via a webpage is an afterthought. Tbh writing performant JS for something like this isn't fun so despite my comments to the contrary you're probably making the right choice here.

I think so too. I think everything we have is entirely possible to achieve in JavaScript but you're spot on, writing performant JS like this isn't fun and harder to maintain.

Fair fair. It is definitely happening, more noticeable in certain situations. :)
