I use it as a daily driver since quite a long time (2 years I guess (* )) and I find the performance not to be an issue (MBP retina late 2013), especially considering having open most of the time 4 windows with about 50 tabs. It can warm the machine on opening 5-10 amazon pages at once but there is no slowdown.
As for Pocket - I don't use it, but prefer this non-inclusive addon instead of Google spying on my every move (yes, you don't have to log-in to google account and you can install ad-blockers but still). And also I don't want to end up with "Best viewed with Inter^WChrome" Internet.
(* ) (using Firebird, then long time Opera user until version 12, then made a switch to Firefox, then to Vivaldi for a 1-2 years and now back to Firefox again)
