As a Software Engineer, the mind is trained to seek optimizations in every aspect of development and ooze out every bit of available CPU Resource to deliver a performing application. One, by researching on the Internet; Two, by developing small programs and benchmarking. These include Python, PHP, Perl, and Ruby.

Once again, even more inconsistency is introduced because they would most definitely test their typefaces with different typographic designs and typesetting settings. Perhaps, we should consider developing a central list of the elements, research, data, sources, and aspects to create legible and usable typefaces, so we can easily choose?

What Web Designers Can Do To Speed Up Mobile Websites. What Web Designers Can Do To Speed Up Mobile Websites. I recently wrote a blog post for a web designer client about page speed and why it matters. What I didn’t know before writing it was that her agency was struggling to optimize their mobile websites for speed.

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. Speed is also something Google considers when ranking your website placement on mobile. Let’s trim that down.

If you've invested countless hours in speeding up your pages, but you're not using performance budgets to prevent regressions, you could be at risk of wasting all your efforts. you're a front-end developer), it's a good idea to track it because it can delay all your other metrics. > Media sites are particularly prone to this issue.

HTML, CSS, images, and fonts can all be parsed and run at near wire speeds on low-end hardware, but JavaScript is at least three times more expensive, byte-for-byte. It's clear that developers are out of touch with market ground-truth , but it's not obvious why. You'll have to read on for what it is!

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. Compared to devices wealthy developers carry, the performance is night and (blinding) day. The Moto G7 very much looks the part.

One of the most surprising results has been the frequent occurrence of “ambush by JavaScript” : We need a new term for the business-opportunity wastage that modern front-end development has created. Budgets are scaled to a benchmark network & device. Deciding what benchmark to use for a performance budget is crucial.

This weeks’ blog post covers a technique you can use to make all file operations on Windows run at one tenth their normal speed (or slower), in a way that will be untraceable for most users! When you own all of the code then this may involve some back of the envelope estimates, competitive benchmarking, or intuition tuned by experience.

Every front-end developer is chasing the same holy grail of performance: green scores in Google Page Speed. Today, the website is much faster and ranks highly in various showcases and benchmarks. In this article, I’ll highlight some of the work we did and how we were able to achieve our speed. Jennifer Brehm.

SQL Server According to Bob

JANUARY 11, 2020

Many high-end disk subsystems provide high-speed cache facilities to reduce the latency of read and write operations. With the proper battery backup and algorithms, the hardware write cache can secure the data safely (on stable media) as well as increase the speed of an application like SQL Server by hiding much of the true physical I/O time.
