This plays the recording with the actual Tribes engine, compiled to WebAssembly — the same playDemo() path the game itself uses. The engine is about 7 MB; it then streams just the game data this recording touches from the archive, as it touches it. Every piece is cached and shared across the site, so a second demo on the same map costs almost nothing. Nothing is fetched until you press play.

Tribes 1 demo, partially read. 9,748 server packets, 22,200 recorded inputs decoded (100.0% of the file), and the stream does not end on the engine terminator — the recording is truncated, as demos stopped mid-match usually are.
