This crashes for me (FF4, Win7).

I would have like to have seen it working, the image on the home page looks nice http://madebyevan.com/#webgl-path-tracing


I played with it for several minutes and it seemed to work fine for me. I've got a 2010 MBP 17" and i'm running Chrome 11 to access the site.

This is really cool and quite exciting. This is the first WebGL demo that didn't totally max out my CPUs, and still had good interactive performance. I'm really quite impressed.


Works well for me (FF4, Ubuntu). Looks awesome.

Edit: OK, after a while it starts to hang and do terrible things to the responsiveness of the system.


really cool but completely hangs my computer for 1 minute after some interaction. chrome on macosx.


Same here, also Chrome on OS X. Had to manually hold down power button.

I appreciate this isn't the fault of the poster, but flagging this just so people know.


Works pretty well for me in ( Chrome, Mac ) but crashing aside its pretty damn awesome.


Win7, FF4 crashes, Chrome 11 keeps just loading.


Thoroughly impressed. I didn't expect it to be so interactive! Lots of fun to be had with reflective surfaces and 'hiding' the light underneath a pyramid.

(using Webkit r83831 on 2009 13" MBP, works a treat!)
