These other tests weren't a like for like comparison, if... else $.each and the other methods needed DOM access as part of the test if the comparison was to be fair.

The video background is a DOM element which affects the ability to measure the page height, unlike a CSS background image that resizes the image as a proportion of the exist DOM element. I would suggest keeping a history of the size of the page/video and resizing negatively if the video is large than all the other elements in the page. I have a lot of project work on at the moment so can't look for a solution at the moment.

You tested <a href="http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.each/" rel="nofollow">jQuery.each</a>, which is a utility function for iterating over any object or array. The performance problems are real, but they come from <a href="http://api.jquery.com/each/" rel="nofollow">each</a>, which iterates over DOM nodes. It's the DOM access that makes it slow.

For IE8 you'd need a Flash alternative, unfortunately i don't have the time to development at the moment. Hi, yeah if the browser doesn’t support HTML5 video then this plugin won’t work.
