Every front-end developer is chasing the same holy grail of performance: green scores in Google Page Speed. Real-life performance for your users and how the website “feels” when you’re using it should not be discounted, even if it costs you a point or two in Page Speed (otherwise, we would all just have a search bar and unstyled text).

Modern network performance and availability. Using a global ASP as a benchmark can further mislead thanks to the distorting effect of ultra-high-end prices rising while shipment volumes stagnate. Recall that single-core performance most directly translates into speed on the web. Here begins our 2021 adventure. Hard Reset.

Many high-end disk subsystems provide high-speed cache facilities to reduce the latency of read and write operations. Many of these systems support I/O ordering with a stable media cache and subsequently combine and/or split I/O requests across available subsystem resources to complete the storing to physical media.
