Huh? (And yes, I know that the add-on isn't supposed to make it run faster, but still, it looks odd.)

Nice one:)

Arguably, a plugin may make browsing faster but startup slower (ie increase network performance at the expense of system performance).
Though I don't know in the case above.

Does encourage the plugin devs to try to optimise their code a bit perhaps.
