I am not sure what's the baseline here, but loading page 51 of this thread:

I don't have issues loading the forum though, it's only viewing a thread that has issues.

I have an idea, you see the green bits on the post bubble, they are drawn using your GPU. Also the animation for the linkify badge is passed to the GPU.

So it would seem it's a browser rendering issue. I can force a browser reflow that will repaint the elements. I did something similar long time to address a bug regarding chrome's font rendering. Pretty sure the same approach will work.

I'll look into it now, but since I can't reproduce it (glad about that tbh) it's only going to be a guess.

Pages 50, 51, 52 are good to test on. It's not likely to find pages that heavy elsewhere that also cover pretty much all types of embeddable content.

I'll get to work on an update right now :)

Edit: Just wondering does resizing the browser make the elements visible?

Lust said :
Very interesting :O
Don't seem to have any issues loading 50,51,52

On .25 though so maybe that was fixed
That;s good to know. As far as I know only Lifer has been having a problem. I haven't been able to reproduce it.

And wow you're quick that update just went live 15 min ago and I haven't had the chance to try it.

I guess I better mention it for Lifer :)

Okay Lifer,

Try updating to Version 3.1.8.25

This is my clue. That's a long period of time (I guess it's to be expected on those pages but I think it's long enough to cause issues). The major things that trigger a redraw have well truly happened long before that event.

There is no more changes that will cause a reflow. RS Linkify is made to reduce reflows by design (as many unnecessary reflows are bad).

I'm guessing that because of the time elapsed and the fact no block elements have technically changed that the browser assumes it's all rendered.

Let me now how it goes because I have another thing to try if it doesn't help.

Fingers crossed! :)

Well Lifer, that version info tag might have proved useful already.

https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html

Click the link I highlighted and you'll see 64bit versions.

These buttons http://puu.sh/hyO87.jpg have become unresponsive at the top of every thread I've visited so far. The ones at the bottom work fine. They also work fine (top and bottom) when viewing a forum section's home page - only on threads do the buttons located at the top refuse to detect input, they're just.. dead. .
