Would be interested in taking a look at your project if you'd offer a link. :-)
The Amp guys make the claim in one of their videos[1] that the GPU can do nothing if a page-layout event is triggered. Amp is geared to minimizing the number of times this has to happen, by demanding that elements are size-bounded for example; the same reason for the CSS GPU-acceleration limits.
Hopefully new render engines will address this, but having them out in the wild is a ways off even if they were ready today. Amp seems like a pretty reasonable stop gap. Although I find their demo site[2] not a perfect experience with all of my normal Firefox plugins. Another comment in that video mentioned above is that Amp sites should be faster without an ad blocker.
