Why is vgchartz so slow?

no other website does this, but when i'm in vgchartz and I scroll the window it's SLOW.. it jitters.. maybe there is just too much on one page, i dunno. but it's really lame.

Or maybe it's due to all the erros on each page you load...... if I clear the javascript errors and load up a page i get hundreds (maybe thousands) of errors.

Like

Warning: Unknown property 'word-wrap'. Declaration dropped.
Source File: http://vgchartz.com/
Line: 0

I installed adblock, thinking it would help. it did. but it's still not supa fast.

As per the machine i'm using, Core 2 Quad with 6gb of ram (64bit) and using Firefox and a NVIDIA 8800... no reason for it to be slow.....

please address this!

What you're describing is a client side performance issue. It can be caused by things on the site. It's probably flash. I disable flash when I browse sites like VGChartz.
