    You're being modest. This is clearly the winner, assuming GitHub is fine with the server cycles.

    Running the JS client side means blocking the thread. You're either 1. delaying other JS from running, or 2. rendering late, shifting the layout – which is what GitHub has chosen. Refresh this issue and you'll see the jank from the flash of the raw equations: https://github.com/Leland/EquationTest/issues/1

    Sending the rendered div's is a non-starter. Large document sizes delay domContentLoaded, slow down browsers, etc.

    Your approach, then. On your page there are 178 SVGs. Total gzipped size is 490KB. SVGO[0] gets that down to 311KB – that's 1.74KB transferred per equation.
