Now if you have reached the point where there is a valid µBlock selfie, this is when µBlock will run the most efficiently.
The next time you launch µBlock and there is a valid selfie, the load time will be a fraction of the load time when no selfie is available, and µBlock's baseline memory footprint will be smaller than when µBlock launches without a selfie available.

So my point is that µBlock will perform best efficiency wise if you leave it time to optimize itself after installation: In subsequent launches, µBlock will perform more efficiently than what you may have observed right after you installed it.

Also, if you want to look at memory figures, aside the above notes regarding garbage collection, keep in mind:
