A very simple question, but one that has been bugging me: Does anyone else have issues with drawing circles in Firefox slowing their game down? No other browser I have tested with has had this issue. I use simple shapes (rectangles, triangles, circles, etc.) wherever I can in place of sprites to save memory and decrease loading time, but Firefox slowing down significantly when I do this is making me reconsider.

I am not using WebGL, and I am running Firefox 11.0. I am very, very certain that it is circle drawing that causes the loss of game speed. I have been unable to test it on another computer running Firefox, which is why I am curious about whether I alone am having this problem.

I have noticed that having about 20 circle objects on-screen lags my 30 fps game.
