There is no way to model how much more traffic you can send to that system before it exceeds it’s SLA. I presented this analysis of response time distributions talk in 2016 — at Microxchg in Berlin ( video ). For high traffic systems, processing the individual response times for each request may be too much work.

In 2016, Google made it clear that since mobile traffic is more than all else, mobile-friendly websites will be prioritised when a user searches on mobile. The software industry goes through a lot of research and modified methodologies that keep the software quality top-notch for the end-user.

I am looking forward to share my thoughts on ‘Reinventing Performance Testing’ at the imPACt performance and capacity conference by CMG held on November 7-10, 2016 in La Jolla, CA. I decided to publish a few parts here to see if anything triggers a discussion. It would be published as separate posts: – Introduction (a short teaser).

54.18% of the global internet traffic is driven by mobile. bn in 2016. Another part of cross-browser testing, cross-device testing is equally important – not only because people use mobile browsers but also heavily use mobile apps. Some stats to prove that (according to Statista here and here ): 1.

This is similar to the type of redirect used if you’ve registered multiple domains and you want to direct all of your traffic to your primary URL. In all of these instances, you should identify which URL garners the most traffic and then configure an HTTP 301 -type redirect for all of the lesser-used URLs to the most-trafficked.

Around 2016, Pinterest migrated from Backbone to React. For unauthorized pages, the same migration saw a 30% improvement in performance and a 15% increase in signups, 10% increase in SEO traffic and a 5-7% increase in logins. They saw a 20% improvement in performance and 10-20% improvement in engagement.

Late in the drafting of this post, it was pointed out to me by Frederik Braun that Brad Hill had considered the downsides of a site-populated SRI addressable cache back in 2016. That is unlikely given the need for SRI annotations or the unbecoming practice of speeding up high-traffic sites, but not others.

It’s about ensuring that your front-end is also working perfectly, that your site can deliver a delightful experience to your users or customers, and that it is functional – even when it’s experiencing up to seven or more times the typical traffic load. Traffic patterns outside of normal [RUM or Analytics].

Because the HTML parser stopped, all network traffic also stopped (because no other HTML tags were parsed to initiate HTTP requests). The number of sync dropped and async rose in June 2016. What we see is that the HTML parser stops when it encounters a SCRIPT tag until that script is downloaded, parsed, and executed.

This was a keynote presentation at the “2nd International Workshop on Performance Modeling: Methods and Applications” (PMMA16), June 23, 2016, Frankfurt, Germany (in conjunction with ISC16 ). Here I assumed a particular analytical function for the amount of memory traffic as a function of cache size to scale the bandwidth time.

I wrote a page on it: [perf]. - **eBPF**: tracing features completed in 2016, this provides efficient programmatic tracing to existing kernel frameworks. The hardest part on Linux is now done: kernel support. It's the official profiler.

According to Gartner , Hyper automation is a technology trend to look out for in 2020. 53% of mobile users leave websites after 3 seconds.

A much bigger update is the new integration with CodeDeploy to support Traffic Shaping and Canary Releases. But this year? Step Functions.

Angular, a Javascript-based framework for developing mobile and web applications, was first introduced by Google in 2009.

Of course publishing it on Martin Fowler’s site was always going to get it to a wider audience (thanks Martin!)

Testing shows that by using the Fua bit with the data, write request can reduce the I/O traffic by ~50% for a SQL Server, write-intensive workload. The repeated use of a write request followed by a flush request may be detrimental to performance and will increase traffic on the I/O bus. Starting with the Linux 4.18 4 Socket, TPCC.
