Tablet Netflicks

Got my infinity, love it all except Netflicks UI runs super laggy. Even on performance mode its runs slow. Anyone else have the same issue?

Do you mean Netflix? I'm just asking, there are new programs all the time, not trying to be mean

Try forcing 2D acceleration under Developer Settings. I think its called "Force GPU rendering." I don't have my TF700 yet but this helps Netflix on all other devices. It won't be silky smooth but it easily doubles the frame rate on my TF201.

...but has been said to generally slow down the system, although it's theoretically meant just for older APIs, at least the benchmarks show considerably lower results when it's on.

It doesn't slow down your system. I'm sure benchmarks not made with it in mind will have lower scores but who cares? It improves the performance for many apps and that is what matters. It shouldn't affect 3D games as this setting only affects Android UI widgets.

The only real down side is that there might be an app or two out there that's not compatible with the forced GPU rendering(hence why its disabled by default). I personally have never run into an app that had issues but an app that extensively uses custom widgets potentially could.

I have noticed the same issue. The app is unusable as is...

yep, this faster product is worse than my archos 10.1 in netflix navigation. good thing there are queue managers to take care of this problem. i hated the day netflix went from a text based instant queue to this pretty shiny crappy picture list.
