Note that tauri is not bundling entire browser in binary, it's using WebView of operating system instead. Therefore any comparison should be done on machine that will run your code.
I think the WebView it uses on linux is webkit2gtk. I would expect that to be similar to Electron, but measurements would be better than guesses.
