HTTPS-Everywhere does not load any CSS in content pages, as that is
entirely irrelevant to its purpose.

CPU overhead I believe to be negligible, especially considering that
HTTPS-E rules use a basic domain matching mechanism before considering
regular expressions.

Memory overhead is significant, but has been reduced recently due to the
introduction of the internal SQLite database.
