Improvements merged within the last two days by the WebKit team: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/170922#discuss...

For my sins I occasionally create large PRs (> 1,000 files) in GitHub, and teammates (who mostly all use Chrome) will sometimes say "I'll approve once it loads for me..."

Interesting how _everyone_ here blames JS and React, yet the fixes you linked are about CSS performance.

Confirmation of priors is a powerful drug. And performance engineering is really hard and often lives at a different layer of the stack than the one you know.

It's just easier to blame the tools (or companies!) you already hate.
