        So does it use Skia or Cairo? In my about:support (in Firefox 27) it says:

        Code:
        AzureCanvasBackend	cairo
        AzureContentBackend	cairo
        Or both are supported now?

          Just tested, changing that to skia in about:config makes this demo much faster: http://js1k.com/2013-spring/demo/1555
          Really noticeable difference. Why isn't that the default then?

              Got crashes on facebook here, and a few other sites. Plus text had lost the sub-pixel anti-aliasing

                Too late, scrollbar already fixed on GTK3 version Nightly.
