DLVs are particularly advantageous for databases with large allocated storage, high I/O per second (IOPS) requirements, or latency-sensitive workloads. We performed a standard benchmarking test using the sysbench tool to compare the performance of a DLV instance vs a standard RDS MySQL instance, as shared in the following section.

Not as much as we'd like, of course, but the worldwide baseline has changed enormously. 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. There are differences, of course, but not where it counts. Talk about a hard target.

This is a complex topic, but to borrow from a recent post , web performance expands access to information and services by reducing latency and variance across interactions in a session, with a particular focus on the tail of the distribution (P75+). Consistent performance matters just as much as low average latency. What's the problem?

Budgets are scaled to a benchmark network & device. Deciding what benchmark to use for a performance budget is crucial. Contended, over-subscribed cells can make “fast” networks brutally slow, transport variance can make TCP much less efficient , and the bursty nature of web traffic works against us.

CrUX generates an overview of performance distributions over time, with traffic collected from Google Chrome users. But account for the different types and usage behaviors of your customers (which Tobias Baldauf called cadence and cohorts ), along with bot traffic and seasonality effects. You can create your own on Chrome UX Dashboard.

This might be very different for your company, of course, but that’s a close enough approximation of a majority of customers out there. For Mac OS, we can use Network Link Conditioner , for Windows Windows Traffic Shaper , for Linux netem , and for FreeBSD dummynet. Lighthouse , a performance auditing tool integrated into DevTools.
