Yes it is as lightweight as claimed. I run detailed benchmarks. You counter with no data + methodology.
Making such claim as "absolutely jams on certain sites" without caring one bit about substantiating this claim by providing a specific URL with which the issue you report could be investigated is highly dubious.
Given the hundreds of hour of work put into this [libre software](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software) by me and contributors, certainly you could have taken the _few seconds_ necessary to post an actual test case (i.e. a URL) to substantiate your issue, which appears rather specific to you (nothing like this was ever reported before).
And regarding "needlessly blocks icons": µBlock blocks according to the selected third-party filter lists. If you think it blocks too much, disable whatever filter lists you want.
