high CPU usage caused by SVG animations in Chrome browser

Hi jerzy,

Unfortunately this is the current behaviour on unaccelerated screens. We've measured very high CPU usage in this use case between Chrome, DisplayLink and macOS
The good news is that the measured CPU goes down to less than a third on High Sierra on Metal compatible systems and our 4.0 alpha driver.

I would not recommend to use macOS beta or our alpha driver on production systems but it looks like a solution is coming.

Kind regards,
Carlo
