long_query_time: Defines the threshold for query execution time, and queries taking longer than this threshold are considered slow and logged for further analysis innodb_buffer_pool_size: Sets the size of the InnoDB buffer pool. This KPI is also directly related to Query Performance and helps improve it.

Thanks to progress in networks and browsers (but not devices), a more generous global budget cap has emerged for sites constructed the "modern" way: ~100KiB of HTML/CSS/fonts and ~300-350KiB of JS (compressed) is the new rule-of-thumb limit for at least the next year or two. Modern network performance and availability.

We constrain ourselves to a real-world baseline device + network configuration to measure progress. Budgets are scaled to a benchmark network & device. JavaScript is the single most expensive part of any page in ways that are a function of both network capacity and device speed. The median user is on a slow network.

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. Chrome has missed several APIs for 3+ years: Storage Access API. Gamepad API.

It is limited by the disk space; it can’t expand storage elastically; it chokes if you run few I/O intensive processes or try collaborating with 100 other users. Over time, costs for S3 and GCS became reasonable and with Egnyte’s storage plugin architecture, our customers can now bring in any storage backend of their choice.
