Google has just added a new flag in its Chromium 18 builds that extends the browser's hardware acceleration feature.
Chromium supports SVG and CSS acceleration on Mac, Windows, Linux, and Chrome OS. Additional experimental GPU acceleration features include GPU accelerated painting as well as GPU compositing on all pages. We were not able to determine any performance gains as those new features appear to be unstable and produced crashes in HTML5 benchmarks such as WebViz.
IE9 was the first browser that introduced SVG acceleration with the first platform preview of IE9 in March of last year.
