CSS runtime performance

Talkat performance.now() 2022 · 2022-10-27..10-28· [css, web-performance]

Shows concrete measurements and fixes: benchmarks that separate style vs layout time, a Chromium selector-stats in trace that lists slow selectors, microbenchmarks showing 50% reduction with contain:content (Chrome) and browsers’ bloom‑filter optimizations for selectors. Demonstrates practical wins — Shadow DOM or scoped styles cut selector cost, batching reads/writes prevents thrashing, concatenating style tags affects Chrome today — and links to reproducible tests and slides so the claims and tools can be verified.
