A blog post talking about performance but showing no numbers to prove the point? Questionable. HTML, CSS and DOM manipulation all by itself is already a performance trainwreck. CSS layouting is ridiculously expensive. The actual framework overhead is usually negligible, especially when considering that writing "optimal" vanilla code is not something that people actually do, or when they do it is a security risk (setting innerHTML without sanitation). The point about 2-3MB bundle sizes isn't valid either, no framework that is any good has more than a few dozen of kilobytes extra payload.
