Not, i opine, for the types of apps which want to host client-side databases. These are client-side applications, not "web pages." Even a bare-bones, database-less google.com is now 3.14mb uncompressed (1.32 compressed), and that's not counting the pieces which uBlock Origin keep from loading. It loads somewhere around 2MB (uncompressed) of JS. Last i checked, gdrive downloaded some 14mb to get up and running. > that's an extra half second added to initial page load. That's not trivial; We'll have to agree to disagree on whether half a second extra initial-hit-only load time is trivial.
