A warning for those not in the know, the performance improvement posts famously give mobile browsers trouble because they are so massive. All because the extent of the improvements is so great (along with the amount of detail the posts go into about the improvements).

I just viewed the one linked above, and the coupla second render delay at first aside, the post displayed nicely, at full frame rate.

Old Note 9, Chrome and Firefox.

Non flagship mobile devices could very well choke on one of those pages, but most newer devices should display these pages with little grief.

Interesting, I thought I saw the usual complaints even in the past year.

And if you look at the PRs for the core, there are Intel people hacking away at the low-level routines too; to make it run better on their latest server CPUs.
