Yes, for me it freezes my Firefox browser for a time and in chrome the startup screen is better but the application has unusable performance: Scrolling in the list of filters at the left-side is very laggy and applying a filter freezes both browsers for a few seconds. I even closed other tabs and applications but no change in performance.
Yeah the home page is a disaster, super laggy and the photos are even revolving over most of the 'read more' text so I can't even read about the features. Please think about redesigning it.
It's using very heavy CSS3 transition for the homepage that causes the frame drop. Will detect that and avoid that from happening.
