 The first step consists in **resolving** the query. This gets the timestamp values from whatever internal representation the WebGPU implementation uses to store query set and write them in a **GPU buffer**.

 It is different indeed, because this size **gives hints to the hardware** about the potential **consistency of memory access** across threads.

 Remember that the GPU process runs at its own pace and that our CPU-issued commands are only asynchronously executed. Implementing the swap chain process manually would hence require a lot of boilerplate, so we are glad it is provided by the API!
