Mobile-Vanilla: slow page rendering in Mobile-Chrome

Registered User regular
Recently updated Chrome (Galaxy S3, Jelly Bean 4.1 and 4.2), and I've noticed periodic slowdowns on thread rendering
Example: http://forums.penny-arcade.com/discussion/175572/strip-search-artists-assemble/p2
The page loads fine, but if I scroll down to Khoo's post, everything is super low-res, and I can see it rendering in chunks. Could it be related to the effect on 5x up-voted posts? That seems to be where it gets stuck most of the time, though not necessarily on the first such instance. Desktop view loads fine.
[Edit] Additional info: I can still click in links while its try to render, even when I scroll too far and the screen is blank. So the content is there, Chrome is just choking on something in the visualization process. I haven't noticed this on other webpages.
Bonus issue: Is there supposed to be no new thread button in mobile view? It wasn't showing up just now.

'Internet' - Same issue with Awesome posts, but clears up faster.
Firefox - Same issue (but clears up faster)
Opera - Stutters when scrolling past the Awesomed posts, but doesn't shit up the rest of the thread over it.
You're using this:
.Promoted{
box-shadow: inset 0 80px 600px #fffcdc;
}
It's that 600px blur that the browsers are choking on.
This runs fine:
.Promoted{
box-shadow: inset 0 0px 60px #44DDEE;
}
(And is easier to to read)
(...and a pretty blue)
[Edit]Why 60? At 200 it was perfectly tolerable in Chrome (the worst of the set), but I could still see glitches if I scrolled from top to bottom as fast as I could. I'm testing this using a copy of that page with no JS or CSS apart from that class, so I'm allowing it could perform worse with everything else turned on, or there were more than 3 'Promoted' posts. At 100px, I can glimpse a render glitch every now and then (1:9 maybe), and at 60px I can't detect any. So 60 seemed like a safe suggestion.
apparently when you create a thread in the mobile version of the site (Android/Chrome/Jelly Bean), the thread gets posted to this subforum, rather than the forum you were in at the time.
i have not rigorously tested this for each subforum, although i suspect Tube/the mods/Geth might be upset if i tried...

Firefox does it too, Opera does not.
