Jumping Bunnies Performance Stress Test

Performance stress test with bouncing bunnies

This demo showcases the performance of moving many Konva.Image objects at the same time. It's adapted from the Bunnymark demo of the PixiJS framework.

Note: You may notice that the Konva version is slower than the original PixiJS version. This is because PixiJS is highly optimized for WebGL rendering and this specific type of animation. While Konva continues to optimize its internals, remember that this demo doesn't represent the performance of typical applications made with Konva.

For applications with a very large number of animated objects, you might consider using Native Canvas Access or even a different framework. Choose the right tool for your specific application needs.

Instructions: Click or touch the canvas to add more bunnies. The counter will show how many bunnies are currently animating.
