Okay, you're right - for a scenario where you're accessing only a
single page on the site, there is no think time to simulate.  But
there is still the browser processing time between the requests to
load the secondary elements of the page.  When you take a recording,
these are the sub-second delays inserted between secondary gets.  I
think delays of even a tenth of a second would make a huge impact on
your CPU usage.

I haven't thought through how the use of synchronization affects this,
and whether it could be used in lieu of artificial waits.
