GIF images in Chrome loading slow and/or other problems [closed]

Question

I am experiencing problems with Chrome and animated .Gif in which they frozen, are slow loading, show screen tearing animations and etc.

Answer 1

1- Type chrome://plugins into the address bar

2- Click the button on the right side to expand the plugins.

3- Look for the PPAPI PepperFlash plugin.

4- Click Disable

If you already have the official Adobe version of Flash installed, it should show up right under the pepperflash plugin listing

5- Leave this one enabled. Otherwise go download the official one from adobe (http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/)

6- Clear the cache. Restart chrome.

Note: Pepperflash re-enables itself after Chrome updates so look out for that. Seems that this bug is fixed in the Chrome dev builds, so it might be fixed in an update sooner or later.

Answer 2

Are you using the animated GIFs as a background image on an element? Chrome is known to have problems with this. If you can find a way to use them in the actual markup, Chrome will serve them fine.

Answer 3

If you use AJAX requests on the page and these are synchronized ( async: false in jquery ), this can be happening in opera/chrome.

AJAX is defaultly asynchronous, so if you did not explicitly state async: false, you do not have to state async: true and this answer might not help you.

Try deleting the line containing async: false.
