KINDLE: measured
We loaded KINDLE in a real headless Chrome, played it, and recorded what it did. Blank cells are facts we could not measure, not zeros.

| Frame pacing | 217 ms (~5 fps) | Median frame time while playing; 95th percentile 283 ms. |
| Renderer | WebGL 2.0 (OpenGL ES 3.0 Chromium) | What the game draws with. |
| Requests | 1 | Files fetched — a low count means a self-contained build. |
