title: Does the CSS3 transition slow down a website?
body: <p>I have currently added the <strong>CSS3 transition</strong> to my website.
  I'm not shure if it is possible, that it slows down my website, but everything seems flickering and there's this "jerky behaviour" on the transitions and flash videos.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using Mozilla Firefox 10.0.02.</p>
  
  <p>I added following to my CSS stylesheet:  </p>
  
  <pre><code>*:link, *:visited, *:hover, *:active, *:focus {
      -webkit-transition: color .25s linear, background-color .25s linear, border-color .25s linear;
      -o-transition: color .25s linear, background-color .25s linear, border-color .25s linear;
      -moz-transition: color .25s linear, background-color .25s linear, border-color .25s linear;
      transition: color .25s linear, background-color .25s linear, border-color .25s linear;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can you tell me if it's rather my browser being slow or if it is the CSS I added and if, then what's the evidence?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you!</p>
