This abstraction allows the compute team to influence the reliability, efficiency, and operability of the fleet via the scheduler. We do this for reliability, scalability, and efficiency reasons. There are also more common capabilities that are granted to users like CAP_NET_RAW, which allows a process the ability to open raw sockets.

The short version is that calls to timeBeginPeriod from one process now affect other processes less than they used to, but there is still an effect. The answer is hardware interrupts. If multiple threads can synchronize or coalesce their timer waits then the system becomes more power efficient. That’s crazy!

Mobile phones are rapidly becoming touchscreens and touchscreen phones are increasingly all-touch, with the largest possible display area and fewer and fewer hardware buttons. The hardware matters, but the underlying OS is the same , and pretty much all apps will run on any device of the same age. This is not true.

Pre-publication gates were valuable when better answers weren't available, but commentators should update their priors to account for hardware and software progress of the past 13 years. The world didn't yet have pervasive multi-process browser sandboxing, JS JITs , or metal-speed binary isolation. Don't like the consequences?

HTML, CSS, images, and fonts can all be parsed and run at near wire speeds on low-end hardware, but JavaScript is at least three times more expensive, byte-for-byte. Meanwhile, budget segment devices have finally started to see improvement ( as this series predicted ), thanks to hand-me-down architecture and process node improvements.

When even a bit of React can be a problem on devices slow and fast alike, using it is an intentional choice that effectively excludes people with low-end hardware. I believe this range of mobile hardware will be illustrative of performance across a broad spectrum of device capabilities, even if it’s slightly heavy on the Apple side.

Micro-optimizations are great for keeping performance on track, but it’s critical to have clearly defined targets in mind — measurable goals that would influence any decisions made throughout the process. Also, as Patrick Meenan suggested, it’s worth to plan out a loading sequence and trade-offs during the design process.
