I tried loading (new) Reddit homepage, and based on Network tab in Firefox without any prior cache it transferred 19.20MB compressed to 15.29MB.
But that also includes any pictures shown.
Loading lemmy.world homepage transferred 5.88MB compressed down to 1.82MB. old.reddit.com 2.82MB compressed down to 947kB. Quite a difference.
Just for comparison, loading Eaglercraft 1.5.2, a fully functional Minecraft JavaScript clone, complete with LAN multiplayer support took 8.35MB.
The author of the article used chrome with a cpu throttling setting at 10x to make a comparison between an m3 and itself at 1/10th cpu. I imagine you could check it that way!
How can I check this?

But what exactly is this measuring?
efficiency?
