I've searched a few minutes for any blog post or article which demonstrates the performance difference between turning this setting on or off, and I haven't found anything.

If you don't have a benchmark, you don't have a performance boost.

This is a silly statement. Not everything is placebo. I'm working on a bigger Angular application and adding this one line of code made a small perceivable difference.

Did you do a double blind test or use any instrumentation to confirm your perception? I ask as someone who has more than once been convinced that I'd made something faster only to prove myself wrong after measuring it.

Given the condescending tone of this article, you'd think the author has some data to back himself up.

I guess after checking 77 web pages if they have this flag enabled or not he didnt have any time left for actual performance testing.
