title: Down-Sized Images are Slow in Chrome
body: <p>I'm working on a script and have an issue with Chrome.</p>
  
  <p>Here's what I'm doing:
  1. Loading large images into a DIV.
  2. Scaling the images to fit the size of the DIV.
  3. When the browser is resized, the image is scaled up and down with the browser.</p>
  
  <p><em>Everything is working 100% in all browsers except Chrome.</em></p>
  
  <p>I've checked the profiler in Chrome and don't see anything unusual.
  These are large images, however are working just fine (even live) in all other browsers.</p>
  
  <p>I've read a ton of places that have noted this issue when using down-sized images in Chrome...but not solution.</p>
  
  <p>Nothing special going on, just using a </p>
  
  <pre><code>var img=new Image();
  $(img).load(function(){ .... {);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Does anyone know of a workaround or solution that will work in Chrome?
  Thanks!</p>
