> Skia is definitely capable of good performance, as it resolves down to OpenGL draw calls, pretty much the same as Alacritty, WebRender, and now xi-mac.

This claim is a bit surprising to me. I was under the impression Skia is an immediate mode renderer which ends up issuing a lot GL calls that could be avoided with a retained mode renderer.
