Regarding CPU footprint, I don't know, I didn't measure yet (maybe I will), but my hunch at this point is that the CPU overhead is higher than that of µBlock. I did run CPU benchmark a very long time ago, and this was the case -- but after such a long time, I have to assume things have changed and I would need to benchmark again -- a time-consuming task.
