Because the HTML parser stopped, all network traffic also stopped (because no other HTML tags were parsed to initiate HTTP requests). IE8 was the first browser to have a preloader in 2009. What we see is that the HTML parser stops when it encounters a SCRIPT tag until that script is downloaded, parsed, and executed.

Then they tried to scale it to cope with high traffic and discovered that some of the state transitions in their step functions were too frequent, and they had some overly chatty calls between AWS lambda functions and S3. They state in the blog that this was quick to build, which is the point.

In fact, Stockholm was the first city in installing 4G back in 2009. When they dug into the data, they found that the reason load times had increased was that they got a lot more traffic from Africa after doing the optimizations. When I finish my job for the day I take the subway, where I have an uninterrupted 4G connection.

Angular, a Javascript-based framework for developing mobile and web applications, was first introduced by Google in 2009. Angular is still one of the most used Javascript-based frameworks for high traffic websites. Because of its increasing popularity and usage, Google rewrote and rereleased it in 2016.

In 2009 at Velocity–the annual performance optimization conference–there was a flurry of information released by companies that clearly demonstrated how performance effects key business objectives. Based on their daily traffic, they estimated that this increase translated to an astonishing 10.28 Performance matters.

The presentation discusses a family of simple performance models that I developed over the last 20 years — originally in support of processor and system design at SGI (1996-1999), IBM (1999-2005), and AMD (2006-2008), but more recently in support of system procurements at The Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) (2009-present).

I wrote an ftrace toolkit, [perf-tools], and the article [Ftrace: the hidden light switch]. - **perf**: since 2009, this started as a PMC profiler but can do tracing now as well, usually in a dump-and-post-process style. It's fast, but limited in places, and usually only suited as a single-user tool (there are workarounds).
