Yeah, couldn't care less if Chrome is faster when it is controlled by Google and actively working against extensions.
Not to mention we crossed a performance line maybe 10 years ago where browser engines on modern processors are basically trivial. Once we started having 8+ threads and the browsers got smart enough to leverage them, I'd bet bandwidth (or memory if you have many tabs), is a way more typical bottleneck.
