benchmarking on the client, in particular for mobile devices which may

from the server to the time taken to render.
Is there someone who has the time to perform and publish an independent
audit on performance specifically? We currently have this:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/HTML_templating_library…
...which suggests that Knockoff is 50% faster than then next fastest
solution (Handlebars), and over 10x faster than most. If this stands up to
scrutiny, and holds true as Knockoff gains feature parity, this is a huge
achievement that we should shout about far and wide, since I believe no one
disputes that a DOM-based approach is much more secure than a string-based
approach. Before bragging about this, though, we should make absolutely
sure that it stands up to independent scrutiny.
