Just a place for me to keep track of comparative memory usage over time. Screenshot before/after [reference benchmark](./Reference-benchmark). Great care taken to ensure memory was garbage collected before screenshots taken. To force memory garbage collection, browser left on idle for more than 1 minute, then dev console of each extension opened, _Timeline_ tab, then clicked twice on the trash can icon.

Observations during benchmark:
- ABP/AdBlock/Adguard are CPU intensive. Whereas uBO consistently show at most low-single digit CPU usage, other blockers are most often showing double-digit CPU usage, and sometimes in the high double-digit range.

Notes:
I chose to not benchmark AdGuard, because of the privacy issues when enabling _Malware/phishing protection_.
