title: JQuery Mobile Super Slow Performance On iPhone 3GS
body: <p>Hi I have a page with a header, a content pane, and about 120 list items. Basically this performs so sloow and buggily on an iphone 3gs with ios5.</p>
  
  <p>Here are some of what it does :</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>There is a login page before that page above, to get to that page above the spinner spins then STOPS spinning and freezes, then the screen goes all grey for about a second or 2, then the page above displays (and Im hosting the website locally on a server).</p></li>
  <li><p>Once the page loads, it hesitates a lot to scroll down, every scroll stops then starts, its very jerky until Ive scrolled all the way down once then its a bit better. While scrolling down the page goes completely blank often with checkerboard background...</p></li>
  <li><p>Upon a tap of any item on the above list it takes approx 3 seconds to light up blue, then takes another couple of seconds to actually go to the next page (same freezing issue with spinner).</p></li>
  <li><p>Once the next page loads its content is mashed up with the page above, so they are like on top of each other, it takes a second for that to disappear.</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>As you can see, a terrible experience. My company has many 3gs phones, any way I can improve the performance?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT 1:</p>
  
  <p>Here is the complete page code : <a href="http://pastebin.com/VLXyeCty" rel="nofollow">http://pastebin.com/VLXyeCty</a></p>
  
  <p>The custom.css contains 1 style to fix the bubble position in latest jqm :</p>
  
  <pre><code>.ui-li-has-alt .ui-li-count {
      right: 67px !important;
  }
  </code></pre>
