Performance difference between chrome and firefox (R3F)

Questions

I searched for others with the same issue as mine and found this post here

I’m new on three js and i’ve done some javascript prototypes before using R3F (the tool that i’m using right now to build this website), I’m not sure if you guys can help me since I’m using R3F but I thought that i’d give it a try.

The problem is that I’m rendering three planets with some subtle animations, as well as two 2D images using Drei’s component and a starfield with some points that ‘twinkle’, i noticed that if i hide some of the planets, I’d gain performance on chrome, but firefox is fine even with the whole scene being rendered.

With Chrome’s hardware acceleration, it seems better (on par with Firefox).

My question is, how can i know if i’m having performance issues? I tried reading the performance tab on chrome devtools but it wasn’t quite clear where to work on to improve that.

Here’s a screenshot of the performance panel:

I wouldn’t even consider chrome without hardware acceleration to be an option.

How are you getting/installing chrome in a way that isn’t hardware accelerated by default?

Are you on linux or smth?

All I can say is that I think I was having this problem because my code was very js heavy, I was moving thousands of particles on each frame, I replaced it at last with some shaders and it seems ok. But you are not in the same case.

My buddy Joe Tile wrote his own Chrome for security research. He wound up making a logo of a faux planet. The problem was, he displaced the indexed triangle strip. BBW, he used a clipping plane to force backfaces to behave.
