Referenced as the exciting demo that set expectations for Servo and WebRender speedups, later compared with Firefox's real results.

This sounds really similar to the story we were hearing about Servo back in 2016: ▶ this video I was really excited when I saw that demo. Why didn't this turn into a final product that people could use?
Can someone more in the know explain if this uses webrender or not? I thought that it did... I have to admit that I'm not super impressed with the results here. Based on the talk that pcwalton did: ▶ this video I was expected it not to just be a little faster than Chrome, but to, like, double the speed, or more. Is it that these are just not good candidates for showing how much faster than webrender can be? Or has Firefox slowed it down vs. in Servo maybe?
I'm not so sure. I remember a presentation of Webrender with nice demos : ▶ this video Everything was perfecty smooth, but according to pcwalton the bottleneck was CSS handling.
>"If performance is not competitive" I don't think this will be a problem. One example... link ▶ this video
