I do actually have video capture comparing how the old and new layouts run, but the file limit for forum posts is too small to upload it. I'm on firefox, with a typical uBlock + Ghostery setup of extensions for adblock (along with a handful of other misc. plugins that shouldn't be relevant) and none of these have ever seemed to have an affect on how well pages run before. It seems to be an issue on virtually every page using the new layout (Game homepage, the search box/search results page, and the larger "mods" pages (ie https://www.nexusmods.com/games/skyrimspecialedition/mods) are where I've personally experienced it). Basically, scrolling up and down the pages is very jumpy. Instead of scrolling the wheel and the page moving smoothly, it is slow to start moving and then moves at a noticably low framerate. This "lag" as it were also applies to opening/closing the search box. Pages load perfectly fine, the only noticable drop in speed when it comes to pages opening is that mods take slightly longer than they used to to appear on the search result page, but it's fairly minor.

I can swallow the new aesthetic choices given time, but the new pages are absolutely slower, just not in the way I think you interpreted what the last person said. The newer version of the main page for any given game (ie; https://www.nexusmods.com/games/skyrimspecialedition) Are noticably more jumpy and laggy compared to the old version. They don't load slower, they are slower in the sense that they are drastically less smooth to navigate.

While I don't mind the new design horribly (Still don't like it, probably never will compared to the old layout. Feels like the classic "fixing something that isnt broken just because we're bored" type deal), the real problem is how poorly it runs. Why does the entire page lag when I try to scroll?
