Measured before changing anything, and nothing about loading changed,
because the evidence does not point at Wonder Ink. Same lab, same page,
timed by each engine until the sign-in form exists: Wonder Ink 2.86-3.00 s
cold and 2.20-2.49 s warm, Chrome 2.79-3.48 s and 1.96-2.15 s. The site is
the weight — 119-160 requests and 3.2 MB for a sign-in form, and its
console reports loading the Google Maps API twice. Memory about 610 MB
for one tab, 115 MB per further tab; idle CPU about 1%.
The lab draws in software for both engines, so it cannot show the one
likely cause it has no hardware for: QtWebEngine failing to use a
classroom's GPU where Chrome succeeds. classroom-wonderink --diagnose,
run from the maintenance terminal in the teacher's session, prints the
engine versions, the scale, the WebGL renderer (a driver, or software),
and the sign-in page's time from a cold cache, in a throwaway profile
beside any running Wonder Ink.
