Tim's approach was to filter out the noise introduced by really fast response times that can be caused by leveraging the browser cache, prerendering, and other performance optimization techniques. Understanding your SPA performance Single-page application (SPA) performance can be hard to get your head around.

In traditional row-mode execution plans, SQL Server may introduce a Bitmap operator as part of performing early semi join reduction before a parallel hash or merge join. Once all batches of hash table data have been processed into the range table, a final bucket merge is performed, then an in-place quicksort puts the buckets in value order.
