Do you have absolute numbers? If it's 100 vs. 300 ms, that'd be huge. If it's 1 vs. 3 ms, I don't really care.

On my Haswell MBP, Stylo can take first pageload styles on Wikipedia pages from 150-200 ms down to 50 ms or so, last I checked.

It's even better now - we get down to about 14ms with various recent improvements in style sharing.
