Jonathan Snook asked me how to get insight in the Chrome DevTools on which elements are getting repainted in the browser’s paint cycle.
My answer, in video form, dives into --show-paint-rects and the Timeline view. (4 min long)
Lots of small text, so fullscreening will help.

btw - I originally posted this 2 weeks ago on my G+ stream, where I’ve been dropping all sorts of goodies lately. Add me to your circles or whatever. :)
