parallax scrolling causing performance issue

[sandys]

the "DO YOU WANT TO SEE MORE?" is causing a serious slowdown of my browser. im on chrome latest with 16 gb ram and core i7

disabling that section speeds it up. can i just remove the parallax background and still have the section?

Hi @sandys,

So far you can't, because the background image is not configurable. But it would be relatively easy to implement it. The affected files are:

• see_more.html - Replacing the background-image-fixed-2 class by a custom background image.
• config.toml - Adding a new option to the [see_more] section.

I encourage you to give it a try and submit a PR. Otherwise I will do whenever I can allocate some time for this.

Best, -Adrian

@sandys Try to workaround by saving an 1x1 pixel jpg as /static/img/fixed-background-2.jpg

Simpler way is just to remove the class and replace it with another such as "background-grey no-mb"
