Juriy Zaytsev (aka Kangax) experiments with CSS3 and some of the emerging CSS performance profilers coming out. Lots of good tips included, as well as some surprising results: For example, did you know the degree of a rotation transform dramatically changes how long it takes the element to render?
Ross Allen from AirBNB dissects the cost of different box-shadow values on WebKit’s scrollTo performance, with an in-depth look at paint times.

I’ll wrap it up by saying this: if you want to build a responsive site, make sure you build it responsibly. If I am viewing your site from my iPhone, I don’t want to download whatever big images you have in your CSS for a 1000 pixel width browser and the smaller image you have in your CSS for a less-than 600 pixel width browser. Don’t serve me both of them, only serve me the right one.
