The resource loading waterfall is a cascade of files downloaded from the network server to the client to load your website from start to finish. It essentially describes the lifetime of each file you download to load your page from the network. You can see this by opening your browser and looking in the Networking tab.

Google’s industry benchmarks from 2018 also provide a striking breakdown of how each second of loading affects bounce rates. Redirects are often pretty light in terms of the latency that they add to a website, but they are an easy first thing to check, and they can generally be removed with little effort.

Likewise, object access paths must be heavily multi-threaded and avoid lock contention to minimize access latency and maximize throughput. Also, load-balancing after membership changes must be both multi-threaded and pipelined to drive the network at maximum bandwidth. Testing Scale-Up Performance. Please retry later.

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.

use the TPC-H benchmark to assess Redshift, Redshift Spectrum, Athena, Presto, Hive, and Vertica to find out what works best and the trade-offs involved. For those systems where you provide your own compute instances, the default configuration tested used a 4-node r4.8xlarge cluster with 10Gb/s networking. Key findings.

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.

Stable media is commonly physical disk storage, but other devices and certain caching facilities qualify as well. Many high-end disk subsystems provide high-speed cache facilities to reduce the latency of read and write operations. This cache is often supported by a battery-powered backup facility.
