How "oldish" is your Macbook? I'm using a core2duo and didn't have any problems.

In fact, retrieving an image from Placekitten took the longest on the network, followed by the overhead of loading a Google font. The only real CPU time spent on this page is the overhead of codepen.

Are you mistaking network latency for performance issues with the example?

I'm also on a core2duo, but I found it slow. It loaded and rendered quickly, but when I resized the preview window (the ability to resize being the main point of doing it this way, I assume), it was very choppy.

Browser versions are important. Do you mind pasting a profile from your debugging tool of choice?

About 4 years. As another commenter said, the problem wasn't loading time, but choppy scrolling/resizing. I am on Mavericks/latest version of safari.
