Rendering 32×32 bitmapped image with 2D to real 3D to 2D projection tranformation to fit 320×240 (100%) HTML5 canvas with translation, scaling, and other composited images:
Chrome v.31x = 62fps
Firefox v.26 = 60fps
IE v.9.0.8x = 45fps
BUT, when using browser’s built-in zoom to 200% (640×480):
Chrome v.31x = 60fps
