Looking at our logo, it seems it should work well in vector format. You were not considering the doodles, were you?

No, the logo. Vector format is great for it, but there were concerns around the performance of the vector drawable compat library (see https://codereview.chromium.org/2068883003/#msg11).

Hannah, would you be able to generate an SVG for the Google Logo on the NTP? I can test whether it's smaller than the PNGs.

This definitely seems worth purusing -- we'd save 60k on install size.

Prototype is here: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/1331728

The bitmap sizing needs some work (it shows up too small).
