Speed Curve
AUGUST 8, 2017
I've written a lot of posts about page bloat, starting way back in 2012, when the average page hit 1MB. These numbers should not in any way even remotely be taken as a benchmark for your own site. In this graph, the steep rise of onload slightly hides the fact that Speed Index trends upward quite significantly – from 2393 (~2.4

These numbers should not be taken as a benchmark for your own site. The median page today serves 25 images, compared to 42 images back in 2012. You can see this by looking at the synthetic test result for Sears.com (again, available via our Industry Benchmarks ). Not all pages are getting bigger. How quickly do they show up?

The cheapest (high volume) Androids perform like 2012/2013 iPhones, respectively. Using a global ASP as a benchmark can further mislead thanks to the distorting effect of ultra-high-end prices rising while shipment volumes stagnate. Recall that single-core performance most directly translates into speed on the web.

When we released Always On Availability Groups in SQL Server 2012 as a new and powerful way to achieve high availability, hardware environments included NUMA machines with low-end multi-core processors and SATA and SAN drives for storage (some SSDs). This chart shows our scaled results using a OLTP workload derived from TPC benchmarks.

This situation was so bad that Microsoft offered a 25% discount on the cost of SQL Server processor core licenses for SQL Server 2012 and SQL Server 2014, if you ran on qualifying AMD Opteron processors with six or more cores. I am optimistic that they will have higher single-threaded CPU performance than Intel Cascade Lake-SP processors.
