Edge servers are the middle ground – more compute power than a mobile device, but with latency of just a few ms. The kind of edge server envisaged here might, for example, be integrated with your WiFi access point. As such, web workers are a natural target to offload to a more powerful server.

This operation is quite expensive but our database can run it in a few milliseconds or less, thanks to several optimizations that allow the node to execute most of them in memory with no or little access to mass storage. The key factor is that the whole data structure resides in the same location (node), facilitating the operations.
