Good point about extension code running while rendering is still blocked by the network. That should prevent any user-facing delay. I just ran a few quick tests with the Top 50 extensions and an NYT article. The charts are ordered by large

I ran the tests 7 times and then took the median. I'll look into quantifying variance more, but for now here's a boxplot for total on-page CPU time. https://gist.github.com/mattzeunert/de3c8aedd2936a34eeb88b62

I ran most of the tests on example.com, which is easy to render without having a GPU available. Looking at on-page CPU time for Evernote, 91% is spent just processing JavaScript or HTML. So I expect any benefit of a GPU to be minimal.

Oh interesting, I didn't know about stitching the streams together in the service worker! Do you know what the advantage of that is over serving the full cached HTML page layout and then fetching the content HTML from inside the page?

That's a good point, I didn't consider having the browser cache the document. That means you can achieve the same thing with the HTTP cache. (I'm not sure if the retention logic between the service worker cache and the HTTP c

Yep, I started copying my images to the EU and Asia regions and now it's fine cost-wise. They don't have an Australia region for the container registry though, so launching VMs there is still pricy for me.

I recently started running more Google Cloud VMs in the UK instead of the US. It was costing me £2 a day to run the VMs, but somehow I also paid £12 a day for "GCP Storage egress between NA and EU”. Turns out that by default Google&#x2
