This can also be seen the other way around. Given the speed at which websites pile on unnecessary shit, just imagine how websites would perform if browser vendors weren't busy optimizing all day long.

That only matters if browser vendors stay ahead of the bloat curve (which I'm not so sure). Otherwise, one could say that for given performance point of the system (hardware platform + browser), there's a set level of bloat software sticks at, making the perceived performance constant.
