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

I have grown up with 32kb/sec downloads youtube has no power here.
The good old days of opening several tabs of a movie that was cut into small pieces so they would load while you did something else.
I still hate that you can't just buffer a whole video up by clicking play then pause then doing something else for half an hour.
They intentionally removed that for some god awful reason
Harder to download video if broken up.
I used to do that all the time back when I was a teenager hijacking my neighbour's wifi signal. One of the things I miss most about early youtube.
Ah yes, I remember back when it took a whole day to download an episode of anime and if anyone used the phone you had to start over from scratch.
Good times.
Goz!lla was awesome.
