Add link to chrome://net-internals/#bandwidth to options page. Putting it there 
should increace usability, it's a way to check whether the extension is working 
correctly.

It could be eeasily done. However, due to a recent Chromium bug which didn't 
count the savings, the statistics are NOT the preferred way to check if DCP is 
working. Check for the Via response header instead.

Couldn't DCP keep track of its own original vs compressed data and provide a 
way to view that in a graph and percentages like Chrome on Android? Even if it 
couldn't see all of the bandwidth, it could at least display the savings of 
data that does go through it, right?

Th problem is, there is no API to get this data. I could only add a link to 
chrome://net-internals/#bandwidth. If you have any ideas, share them with me.

There is a proposed API for this:

Seems like the bug has been quashed, as my statistics page shows a 15% 
bandwidth savings.

I'd prefer the link to the stats right on the extension icon's right-click menu 
for quick reference.
