Apparently PC Gamer is reporting a 15% CPU usage spike, on top of the throttled buffering.
Louis Rossmann has a video on it, too.

Funny, when I don't have adblocks on, Youtube buffers a little bit, then when it hits an ad point, throws all the buffering away for some reason, it doesn't "hold" the buffer through the ad split. So it has serious throttled and bottlenecked buffering when ads are on for me, not off.
Once again, piracy is a service problem.
