Yet, we wanted to put together our list of the top web performance books for anyone who cares about speed of the web and would like to explore the timeline of web performance engineering milestones over nearly two decades through the lens of published books. Site speed & SEO go hand in hand. Speed Up Your Site. Still good.
Speed Curve
AUGUST 8, 2017
Among the many things Ilya observed after analyzing HTTP Archive data for desktop sites, when you have outliers that weigh in at 30MB+ and more than 90% of your pages are under 5MB, an "average page size" of 2227KB (back in 2016) doesn't mean much. These numbers should not in any way even remotely be taken as a benchmark for your own site.

Performance issues surrounding Availability Groups typically were related to disk I/O or network speeds. We needed to start thinking about how fast can we replicate to a synchronous secondary replica in terms of % of the speed of a standalone workload. As we moved towards SQL Server 2014, the pace of hardware accelerated.

Some of the built-in features ( wal_compression ) have been there since 2016, and almost all backup tools do the WAL compression before taking it to the backup repository. Attempts to compress PostgreSQL WAL at different levels have always been around since the beginning. But this comes with a considerable performance implication.

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 ). Building separate models for each of the benchmarks was required to get the correct asymptotic properties.
