Javascript Optimization - Lessons from Mint Team

A few specific and very interesting contexts that apparently are worth noting and addressing to improve performance. Maybe they can be cross-polinated to other tools?

Good read. The honest caveat right in their own docs is worth noting: only one dev (Jason, low-end CPU, NVIDIA, multi-monitor, low-latency kernel) actually saw measurable input lag improvements.

So the cross-pollination potential is real but likely narrow.

The gsettings listener reduction is probably the most universally applicable takeaway since fewer listeners is just good practice regardless of environment.
