I spent a bout 4 hours on having a simple transition with an acceptable performance:
First I tried this code :
left: 2000px;
-webkit-transition: left 1s linear;
-moz-transition: left 1s linear;
-ms-transition: left 1s linear;
The result was terrible on Chrome v21.0.1180.89 and FireFox v15.0.1, but was great on IE10.
I captured the CPU usage and GPU usage graph and found that chrome does not use GPU for basic css properties,
What is the solution for modern-browsers?
