$ chrome
Pledge (on) + Unveil (on): 0m03.16s

$ chrome --disable-unveil
Pledge (on) + Unveil (off): 0m01.19s

Disabling pledge doesn't make a difference. Also, it's not half a second,
but still significantly faster.

Test done with a new ~/.config/chromium to rule out config issues.

ktrace files with and without unveil here (dmesg as well):
