Investigation using the "Blocking Profiler" revealed that a lot of time was spent during buffer reading. Using io.copy to read the full HTTP response, and then reading from that in the memory buffer resulted in a great performance boost. The parsing step initially took around ~300ms, now it is in the sub-millisecond range ( ~500µs ).
Initially, I thought passing the resp.Body directly into the html.Tokenizer would reduce memory usage, without causing any performance issues. However, it seems like every time the application tries to read from the HTTP response, it is an expensive operation.
