Looking at the industry benchmarks for US retailers , four well-known sites have backend times that are approaching – or well beyond – that threshold. Pagespeed Benchmarks - US Retail - LCP When you examine a waterfall, it's pretty obvious that TTFB is the long pole in the tent, pushing out render times for the page.

Google’s industry benchmarks from 2018 also provide a striking breakdown of how each second of loading affects bounce rates. Source: Google /SOASTA Research, 2018. I’m going to update my referenced URL to the new site to help decrease latency that adds drag to the initial page load. So, load it once, enjoy it many times.

This post at an entry-level discusses the options you have to improve log throughput in your benchmark environment. . Additionally for the log disk component it is latency for an individual write that is crucial rather than the total I/O bandwidth. To illustrate the data reads on Oracle we can flush the buffer cache.

As an engineer on a browser team, I'm privy to the blow-by-blow of various performance projects, benchmark fire drills, and the ways performance marketing (deeply) impacts engineering priorities. With each team, benchmarks lost are understood as bugs. April 2018 , but not usable until several releases later). Pointer Lock.

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. India became a 4G-centric market sometime in 2018. The Moto G4 , for example. 2] Getting accurate global information that isn't artificially reduced to averages remains an ongoing challenge.

Budgets are scaled to a benchmark network & device. Deciding what benchmark to use for a performance budget is crucial. It simulates a link with a 400ms RTT and 400-600Kbps of throughput (plus latency variability and simulated packet loss). Performance budgets are set early in the life of the project.
