Some friends and I have had this discussion of late: is script (involving lots of DOM manipulation) or CSS (involving script) for efficient in terms of browser implementation.
I can imagine thought experiments to resolve the issue, but the results would only prove things in certain dreams (albeit good ones). Does anyone know of any systematic studies that pit DOM against CSS when it comes to browser performance? What would things be like in the mobile world? The last time (2008) that I studied mobile performance with SVG -DOM (http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/Benchmarks.htm ), the i-phone didn't do so well, but I suspect that things may have changed in the post ASV-world, and, of course, CSS support for SVG was even more fledgling then than now that the CSS-ers have decided to annex SVG (with no response from the League of Nations).
