At the default 25 flakes, my core i7 is running at 25% CPU in Firefox. (ie 100% of one core). This is due to poorly JS code which makes performance terrible. Please update your JS code to be more lightweight and you will be the first snowfall plugin that doesn't impact site performance.

Poor performance

Professional snow plugin with highly customizable options, no coding knowledge required.
