Hi Benjamin, I can't talk about timings without testing your code, but I am for any change we can do to accelerate the startup of activities. My code do the render of the svg only one time, and previous timings we found this operation have a big cost. Probably we can accelerate the animation more with server side operations, but I am not an expert. Any help is welcome
