Benchmarking Google Latency Network 
Speed Curve
FEBRUARY 5, 2024
Google recommends that TTFB be 800ms at the 75th percentile. Looking at the industry benchmarks for US retailers , four well-known sites have backend times that are approaching – or well beyond – that threshold. The use of server-timing headers by content delivery networks closes a big gap.

One free tool has become prominent in the space – Google Lighthouse – and one question often bubbles up: “I use Google Lighthouse for one-off snapshots of my site’s performance, so why do I need a performance monitoring solution?” Where Google Lighthouse Shines Bright.

Here’s some predictions I’m making: Jack Dongarra’s efforts to highlight the low efficiency of the HPCG benchmark as an issue will influence the next generation of supercomputer architectures to optimize for sparse matrix computations. In early January a related paper was published by Satoshi Matsuoka et. petaflops, which is 0.8%

This is sometimes referred to as using an “over-cloud” model that involves a centrally managed resource pool that spans all parts of a connected global network with internal connections between regional borders, such as two instances in IAD-ORD for NYC-JS webpage DNS routing. This also aids scalability down the line.

It's time once again to update our priors regarding the global device and network situation. seconds on the target device and network profile, consuming 120KiB of critical path resources to become interactive, only 8KiB of which is script. What's changed since last year? and 75KiB of JavaScript. These are generous targets.

They can also bolster uptime and limit latency issues or potential downtimes. Establishing clear service-level agreements is key as they outline specific responsibilities and performance benchmarks expected from cloud service providers during disaster recovery scenarios.

Thanks to progress in networks and browsers (but not devices), a more generous global budget cap has emerged for sites constructed the "modern" way: ~100KiB of HTML/CSS/fonts and ~300-350KiB of JS (compressed) is the new rule-of-thumb limit for at least the next year or two. Modern network performance and availability.
