Seems that no matter how few frames I use or whether or not I use dithering, the GIFs I make with ofxGifEncoder playback horribly slowly in the browser. Here are some examples:

My images are also only 320x240 so I don't think it's an issue of too many pixels.

Are there any tricks for getting gifs made by ofxGifEncoder to playback efficiently? Is this simply a matter of better frame compression as mentioned in your TODO?

I love the idea for this library and how easy it is to use, but right now the results I'm getting are pretty unusable. Am I missing something?

Thanks,

Greg
