Some people report many issues and never get a harsh reaction, while a few people always get harsh reactions when posting to the lists. I guess it's simpler to assume the problem is with the other people on the list rather than adjust a shitty attitude ;-) Reporting issues is one of the best way for a non-developer to help us and I think it's pretty clear to everyone that OpenBSD and all related projects don't tend to hide issues under the carpet. -- Gilles Chehade https://www.poolp.org @poolpOrg

Re: Sluggish/laggy browser behaviour
Well, video playback aside (least of my problems on this machine tbqf)... >OpenBSD doesn't have multithreading in the kernel and is tuned for >correctness rather than performance. I take from that I should not expect to see any movement on this front... Should I give up and go back to Linux then? Web usage is like a solid 50-60% of my daily use on this machine; I can't handle how bad scrolling and opening+closing tabs are if it's going to be my daily driver OS.

It took me a while with custom settings to get mythtv just to play DVB (480?) video (mplayer worked) well on something like mythbuntu 7 or 9 and newer versions of mythbuntu couldn't on the same hardware and settings. I have a p4 3ghz with hd2400 pro that can play 1080p after some twiddling in mythtv (vdpau which I thought was for nvidia) but low grade iplayer HD (<720P) is pushing it towards the limits on google chrome and I have another mythtv intel gpu 64 bit dual core (newer than duo) machine where chrome can play browser video but firefox really struggles. I'll love the day I can ditch those linux boxes with html5 being one step but I'm not sure I'll hold my breath for dvb/dvbs card support but maybe tv will all come through the internet via html5 in the future anyway :-) Things like sky go and many others only work with Windows and mobiles currently though.

IIRC it works better on GENERIC rather than GENERIC.MP. I haven't tried in

I might have gotten luky but this Thinkpad X220 plays 720p Youtube HTML5
video in Chromium without glitches, even on fullscreen.
As long as there is no other system load.

Same here. I always download any video content first and play it in vlc or

I have never seen fluent browser HTML5 video on any OpenBSD machine.
Generally, videos at a fair resolution on OpenBSD played back without
use of xvideo extensions or OpenGL are not watchable.
My theory is that browsers rely on fast multi-core CPUs and multihreading in
the kernel to show video smoothly. OpenBSD doesn't have multihreading in
the kernel and is tuned for correctness rather than performance.
Did anyone try playing HTML5 video in a browser on a slow (<= 1Ghz) single
core machine running Linux? Would you expect that to work?

I've updated to the latest snapshot. Unfortunately my problem persists even when tabs are not using sounds. Scrolling e.g. the front page of Reddit is choppy and stuttery. Using apmd -A and hw.perfpolicy=auto helps a little with the tabbing issue but not scrolling. Both my browsers report that they are hardware-accelerated, so it at least appears my graphics drivers are working. I'm at a loss here.

Sluggish/laggy browser behaviour
Hi, I'm running the 19 July snapshot and am experiencing laggy tab behaviour in both Chromium and Firefox. Specifically, when opening and closing tabs I regularly experience noticeable and irritating pauses. The system is a thinkpad X220T with an i7 and 8 GB of memory, and under different operating systems tabbing performance is acceptable. Has anyone experienced similar? dmesg follows: OpenBSD 5.8-beta (GENERIC.MP) #1171: Sun Jul 19 19:03:27 MDT 2015 dera...@amd64.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC.MP real mem = 8451125248 (8059MB) avail mem = 819168 (7811MB) mpath0 at root scsibus0 at mpath0: 256 targets mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: SMBIOS rev. 2.6 @ 0xdae9c000 (66 entries) bios0: vendor LENOVO version "8DET69WW (1.39 )" date 07/18/2013 bios0: LENOVO 4298W2E acpi0 at bios0: rev 2 acpi0: sleep states S0 S3 S4 S5 acpi0: tables DSDT FACP SLIC SSDT SSDT SSDT HPET APIC MCFG ECDT ASF!
