Many were hesitant to sacrifice site speed for the added layer of security if they felt like they didn’t need it. In a vacuum, an SSL certificate does add some additional latency, as it requires 2 extra round trips to establish a secure connection before sending any data to the browser. Source: Google Blog. Is SSL slow?

These strange questions came to the fore back in 2014 when Netflix was switching services from CentOS Linux to Ubuntu, and I helped debug several weird performance issues including one I'll describe here. A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. How would you _time_ time?

A great candidate for must-revalidate is a blog like mine: static pages that seldom change. If, however, there wasn’t a new file on the server, we’ll bring back a 304 header, no new file, but an entire roundtrip of latency. We can completely cut out the overhead of a roundtrip of latency. stale-while-revalidate. FAQs Page.

Today we’ll be digging into the analysis of an incident that took place at Etsy on December 4th, 2014. 1:18pm a key observation was made that an API call to populate the homepage sidebar saw a huge jump in latency. The blog post was subsequently unpublished. The shop had been closed so no data was available. The last word.
