Same effect as hosting your static stuff on a CDN, like basically everyone does already.

It's not the same as a CDN.

"Static Hoisting" is pushing data to the edge and replicating it ahead of time. Legacy CDNs are just in time. The approach discussed in this article has a performance and availability advantage.

There are CDNs out there that allow me to push my content "ahead of time", like Akamai. Besides, the speed advantage vanishes after the first request.
