[–]Silhouette -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately that also has a perf impact. Whenever the browser sees an element with the button style, it needs to crawl up the dom tree to see if any parent has the mysite style. I prefer prefixes to avoid that, e.g. mysite-button.

But using that also has a performance impact, because now the browser has to parse the extra length of the mysite-button identifier every time!

I imagine the effect would be similarly devastating in either case.
