Alternative to qTip (jQuery Tooltip Plugin)

Can anyone recommend a good alternative to qTip, the jQuery tooltip plugin? I feel like it's slowing down my web app because its adding canvas elements and event listeners all over the place.

Yeah I had problems with qTip also. I ended up making my own. This seems to be happening more often. I just can't find what I want and end up making what I need.

GitHub.com uses tipsy. I trust that they have chosen pretty carefully, so that's what I would go for.

The Bootstrap tooltips are "inspired" by Tipsy as well.

I fount https://github.com/iamceege/tooltipster with almost all essential functions of qTip.

The qTip js file is 64kb while this is 17kb. Which was important in our project.
