This script may have side effects:

  • sometimes events attached to animation will not fire. I still work on this from time to time. One of workarounds is to set duration of the animation to very low value (0.001ms) - this have slight effect on performance - your benchmark scores may be bit lower.
  • you may see page jumps when (auto)scrolling. This is (I think) side effect of jQuery animation jumping to the end immediately.
  • dropdown fields selection may jump randomly (flicker)
  • marquee/carousel/slideshow-like animations may scroll very fast using lot of resources (commenting out delays/durations adjustment will help)
  • youtube cinema mode switching may not work (player width will stuck)
  • google login page may stuck on greyed password field
  • endomondo login page may stuck (white page, orange progress on top)
  • map on mygpsfiles.com cannot be resized
  • DuckDuckGo search results may flicker/jump on hover
  • olx.pl search results may stuck on spinner

Because of this, new js-only version is available now https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/40529-animalqueryjs Issues may also been fixed in new Firefox releases (66 looks promising)
