Page transitions poor in Chrome

Page transitions poor in Chrome

I have just started work on a new site using JQuery Mobile (latest version, downloaded a few days ago) . I have set the default page transition to "pop". The transitions always work fine in Firefox 26.0 and IE 10, but in Chrome  32.0.1700.72 m  they are poor around 50% of the time. I have tried adding 
  1. .ui-page { -webkit-backface-visibility: hidden; }
as suggested at  http://demos.jquerymobile.com/1.3.0-beta.1/docs/pages/page-transitions.html. It seems to improve things slightly (difficult to be sure as the problem only occurs on 50% of transitions), but certainly does not cure it.
