User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0

Steps to reproduce:

Open https://mullvad.net, scroll up and down repeatedly. Try with WebRender both on and off.

OS: Windows 10 x64
CPU: Intel Core i5-3210M
GPU: Intel HD 4000/NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M
(the results are more or less the same when using either of them, though the problem is more apparent when using the Intel GPU)

Actual results:

Scrolling performance seems considerably worse when WebRender is enabled, and the average framerate is in fact lower. See the attached screenshot.

Expected results:

The webpage should be rendered at 60 fps.

Can you get a screenshot with gfx.webrender.debug.profiler turned on?

I believe it's already attached to the issue. Naturally, the same profiler doesn't show up when WebRender is off, so the "Gecko" screenshot might not be as informative.

Ah right. I missed that. GPU times look ok. I suspect this might be a blob image.

Depends on: wr-perf, blob-recoord
Priority: -- → P3

Looks good now.
