jQuery Updater vs Use Google Libraries

Head-to-head on the signals that matter, from the public WordPress.org data.

Active-install trajectory

No change to chart. WordPress.org reports active installs in coarse bands, so neither plugin crossed a band during this window. The download trend below moves daily and is the better read over a period this short.
