The rendering speed difference is negligible, with a bandwidth this limited the only strategy is to limit what the browser fetches. You don't need a proxy server to strip out page content (also because that would imply breaking the encryption stream), a browser could simply choose not to fetch any image or multimedia resources, override remote fonts with local ones, etc. In that sense the choice matters, because some are specialized for this purpose or can be configured to act in these manners
