Puffin browser on PC

I've been using Puffin for a couple of months on my phone as it has a built in flash player among other things, recently they announced a PC version of the browser aswell. I wanna hear opinions of older users if there are any

I can see using Puffin on devices like smartphones, which don't have much performance and would benefit from some of the workload being offloaded to separate servers with more performance, but I don't really see the point of Puffin on PCs; at least semi-modern ones that don't run on a single-core Pentium or something.

The compression feature may be useful if you have a metered internet connection but other than that, if you don't have a fast internet connection it could possibly even be slower than running a normal web browser like Chrome or Firefox.
