Request Details
Overview
This project aims to improve the performance of Chromium by optimizing Chromium's accessibility code related to bounding box computations and updates, which can have a significant impact on jank, general performance and battery life, specifically in case of scrolling and animations.
Impact
Because many utilities, such as password managers, use accessibility APIs, hundreds of millions of users are having their performance and battery life greatly affected. As a rough estimate, up to 7% of users have accessibility turned on but aren’t aware of it. See FAQ: Non-Accessibility tools can break Chromium performance or cause lockups by turning on accessibility.
Refer to attached document for implementation details.
