That's from Lottie, the animations that play in the header and footer of the page. Shrink your window until they disappear and try again.

Oh, yea, "you're holding it wrong"

  • ? In this very particular case, yeah, the original commenter was holding it wrong, as they inspected the wrong thing. People sometimes hold things wrong and it's okay.

Is it? I am in the middle of the page, the header and footer are well off into the distance not being rendered, and I see the same pattern.

  • Zoom in, take a look at what code is running, and you'll see it's all `lottie_light.min.js`. Being offscreen doesn't mean it's doing nothing. In fact, it looks like once it shows once it keeps spinning its RAF loop forever. Shrink your window so it disappears, reload, and then profile.
