Key Takeaways Redis offers complex data structures and additional features for versatile data handling, while Memcached excels in simplicity with a fast, multi-threaded architecture for basic caching needs. Redis is better suited for complex data models, and Memcached is better suited for high-throughput, string-based caching scenarios.

On your first try, you can use it as a benchmark for optimizations later. Active Memory Caching. When you want to get data that you already had quickly, you need to do caching — caching stores data that a user recently retrieved. Caching partially stores your data and is not used as permanent storage.

Google’s industry benchmarks from 2018 also provide a striking breakdown of how each second of loading affects bounce rates. Speed is also something Google considers when ranking your website placement on mobile. I’m going to update my referenced URL to the new site to help decrease latency that adds drag to the initial page load.

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. Meanwhile, developer behaviour offers little hope: Median mobile JavaScript payloads have only grown since 2016, now hovering above 400KiB of script transferred, or nearly 2.5MiB of uncompressed JS.

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. All modern browsers are fast, Chromium and Safari/WebKit included. Service Workers.
