Not really. It just has to keep a separate database for the cookies and local storage (or just an extra column?) not sure how it works underneath the hood, but there's no noticeable performance impact.

In the next 6 to 12 months Google is removing most adblock functionality - switch to Firefox (also Firefox mobile is amazing with uBlock origin )
They're not allowing remote connections for security , but you need a lot of 3rd party data to keep track of lists of ever changing malicious websites and ads to block
also Firefox mobile is amazing with uBlock origin
ublock on mobile is a total gamechanger if you have a cheap phone with low performance
Firefox is the way.
I actually deleted my google account yesterday. Felt so good. I'm finally free.

Me: Oh no, what will i do! Absolutely fuck all
Ditch chrome
Of course it's slowing google. It's slowing their income
and this is not just you using a billion blocklists?
Using all those blocklists is still a whole lot faster than the increased load times from loading ads.
