Sluggish on Firefox

Is anybody else having this issue? Plax works perfect on Chrome, Safari, even IE9 works fine. To be more specific, it just sluggish hard on Firefox for Mac. On Windows lets says its acceptable.

Are you getting any kind of errors in the console?

I'm finding something similar – sluggish to load in FF, rather than sluggish once loaded.

The page loads, and the objects jiggle slightly on their own (no mouse present) for about 5 seconds, then Plax starts to work.

I am using some fairly large graphics (dimensionally – 1500x1000px), so maybe this has an impact – your demo works fine. When I get my use of the plugin live, I can post a link.

Firefox's accelerometer support is pretty weird. It fires off all kinds of events even when the device is sitting still. The current setup is design to try to mute most of that, but some still get through on the initial page load. I think the future of Plax will be to drop support for accelerometers (laptops) and switch more to gyroscopes (mobile devices), since the usefulness of motion based events on laptops is pretty minimal.
