More easily, you can use some of the editors that already use tree-sitter for fontification of C/C++ and do the PgDn test (which looks like a rather silly test to me, because who navigates large files by holding PgDn and why Emacs should support that terrible use case well?) This would provide a valuable comparison point for little effort. Although I'm more interested on accuracy, but it seems that the thread was effectively and hopelessly hijacked :-/
