I was aware of that for browsers; is this also true for Electron?

Electron is just a packager for Chromium, with the minimum code necessary to achieve that objective.

Technically it is a browser. Unless I am making a serious logic flaw here, it should be applicable.

Ok, but is the eluctron runtime freed of this throttling limitation?

Yes, that is the question. There seems to be no good reason to keep that limitation in the packaged browser.
