Doing more with less is a virtue in software. For users of µBlock, this means:
- Less CPU churn when loading a web page, which may translate into noticeable faster page load.
- Higher memory consumption correlates with higher CPU-cycle consumption: whatever extra memory is used is memory which has to be allocated/written to/read from (at least once)/garbage collected.
- Free to use [more filter lists](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Filter-lists:-gorhill):
- For instance, [ABP warns against using too many filter lists](https://adblockplus.org/en/getting_started#subscription): _"It is important to note that you should not add too many filterlists to Adblock Plus"_
- Longer battery life: each time unit, however small, in which the CPU is idle rather than churning translates into extended battery life.
