Blazing fast! I've had issues with apps that replace the new tab being slow but this is absolutely fast, love it!

Very simple yet useful. I like how when you close your 'New Tab' and eventually open another, whatever you wrote will be brought back. I have yet to experience performance issues, but so far, none. Great extension!

Really great! Animate.css is also really cool!
