Hi Dave,

I have tested Surinder's patch in my local machine with Qt 5.9.1 Webkit on
Windows and we are getting improvements with this patch. :)

Below performance tested with Qt 5.9.1 with annulen webkit v 5.212.0 Alpha2.

*Before Webpack patch:-*

It took ~20 seconds. This 20 seconds includes when user double click on
application ( timing of python server start + page load )

*After Webpack patch:-*

It took ~13 seconds ( timing of python server start + page load ).

We got ~7 seconds improvement with webpack on same machine & same Qt
configuration and this will be useful in windows performance issue as well
:)

Thanks,
Neel  Patel
