Frog slow on low-end device

[Diane Prince]

We have recently been trying to solve an issue with our netbooks running Frog, because they were particularly slow for end users browsing sites etc.

We found that the problem might be traced to Chrome GPU Rendering and are wondering if anyone else in the community is having similar problems? Perhaps our solution might help?

We found this page: 

https://www.lifewire.com/hardware-acceleration-in-chrome-4125122

And working through the suggestions most were already in place, except for this one:

The final thing you can try to enable acceleration when Chrome doesn't seem to want to, is to override one of the many system flags:

1. Enter chrome://flags in the address bar.

2. Locate the section on that page called "Override software rendering list."

3. Change the Disabled option to Enabled.

4. Select the blue RELAUNCH NOW button when it appears at the bottom of Chrome after enabling hardware acceleration.

5. Return to the chrome://gpu page and check whether acceleration is enabled.

At this point, "Hardware accelerated" should appear next to most of the items.

Would anyone else be able to give this a try to see if their Frog experiences are improved? We’ve even seen improvements on some of our mid end devices too.
